Note di degustazione
Boillot's 2015 Meursault Village is a nice introduction to the house style, offering up notes of ripe peach, spice, toasted hazelnuts and a framing of light reduction and new oak. On the palate, the wine is supple, medium to full-bodied and textural, its richness buttressed by good energy and cut. This cuvée is a blend of Les Narvaux, Les Tillets, Les Chevalières and the Clos du Cromin, so contains some high-class fruit. It wouldn't be a crime to enjoy this in its youth, as it's already generous and accessible.

Medium yellow. Very ripe, slightly wild aromas of apricot and oatmeal lack the lift and nuance of the 2016. Fat, plush, sweet wine with just enough acidity to frame its peach and apricot flavors and to maintain its shape and verve. This very ripe village wine finishes with a light phenolic edge and a lingering nutty oak flavor.
Bright, pale yellow. Sweet peach and nectarine aromas are joined by tangerine and lemon nuances. Rich, tactile and smooth, with nearly exotic stone fruit flavors accented by orange zest. Builds nicely toward the back, finishing classically dry and persistent. Incidentally, Boillot told me that his 2015s typically finished at a very dry 1.0 gram per liter residual sugar and that his 2014s were closer to 0.5.
