Henri Boillot`s Clos de la Mouchère 2009 offers a delightful nose, presenting a subtle flinty and matchstick reduction, intertwined with notes of honeyed popcorn. As it evolves, lovely scents of flowers and lemons emerge. Abundant with white and yellow fruit flavours, the wine also reveals hints of chalk, ginger, honey, and lemon. It impresses with a perfect balance of minerality and acidity, leading to a satisfying and enduring finish.

(domain wine): Sexy aromas of peach, orange oil and smoky silex. Concentrated, layered and utterly seamless, with peach and soft citrus fruit flavors lifted by powerful flinty minerality. A premier cru with grand cru perfume and inner-palate energy. This sharply delineated wine stains the palate and builds inexorably on the sappy aftertaste. Superb. (Incidentally, Boillot did not make a Chevalier-Montrachet in either 2009 or 2008.)Stephen Tanzer1st September 2011

The 2009 Puligny-Montrachet Clos de la Mouchere is hugely impressive. It bursts from the glass with layers of mineral-infused finish, showing tremendous energy and focus. Words can only fail in capturing the sheer beauty and completeness of the wine. The striking, pointed finish leaves a lasting impression. Anticipated maturity: 2015+.
Henri Boillot began harvesting on September 3rd, which he thought was critical in maintaining as much freshness as possible. All of the wines were aged in 350-liter light-toast Francois Freres barrels, with no batonnage. These are some of the most viscerally thrilling, textured 2009s readers will come across. Boillot’s ever-growing collection of negociant wines is reviewed separately. I tasted with Boillot at his Volnay facility, and was thus able to only taste a handful of 2010s, all Domaine (rather than Maison) wines. The 2010s I did taste were exciting and hugely promising.
