Experience the enigmatic allure of Jean Marc Boillot Volnay Pitures Premier Cru, a transcendent expression of 100% Pinot Noir from a cherished 1.10-acre parcel of clay-limestone soils. With vines planted in 1949-1950, this exceptional wine is the culmination of meticulous hand harvesting, strict sorting, and a three-stage maceration process. The aging in 25-30% new wood barrels from Cher and Allier bestows it with impeccable structure and balance.
The intense ruby hue, adorned with a mesmerizing purple luster, draws you into a multifaceted olfactory experience. The aroma evokes roasted, very ripe black fruit with whispers of dried cherry, cranberry, leather, earth, and eucalyptus. On the palate, this Premier Cru boasts a tannic texture and structure, encapsulating a concentrated and powerful Cuvée. The light-bodied, clean profile bursts with juicy cherry flavors, while soft and subtle tannins seamlessly guide you to a moderately long finish.
The unique character of Jean Marc Boillot Volnay Pitures Premier Cru makes it an exquisite companion for indulgent, savory dishes. Envision a succulent, herb-crusted rack of lamb, or a savory wild mushroom risotto with a touch of truffle oil. The wine's earthy undertones and vibrant fruit notes make it an equally fitting partner for a sumptuous duck confit or a platter of aged, artisanal cheeses. Whatever the occasion, this exceptional wine will elevate your culinary experience to new heights.
Plum, rhubarb, tobacco and smoky black tea in the impressive nose of Boillot's Volnay Piture follow on the palate, juicy and edgy, amidst toasty, resinous notes from the 50% new wood in the wine (like all of Boillot's first growths this year) and slightly gummy tannin.
