The Meursault Les Gouttes d’Or 2020 is a powerful yet finely articulated Chardonnay, reflecting both the generosity of the vintage and the vineyard’s naturally firm backbone. The nose opens with ripe pear, lemon oil, white peach, and acacia blossom, layered with notes of hazelnut, crushed stone, and subtle spice. On the palate, the wine is broad and textured, yet tightly coiled, driven by vibrant acidity and a pronounced mineral core. A refined creaminess supports flavors of citrus zest, almond, and orchard fruit without blurring definition. As it evolves in the glass, saline and lightly smoky nuances add depth and complexity. The finish is long, structured, and resonant—an authoritative Meursault built for aging, combining richness with unmistakable precision.

Domaine Henri Boillot is one of Burgundy’s most exacting and respected estates, renowned for its relentless focus on precision, balance, and terroir expression. Based in Volnay, the domaine farms parcels across some of the Côte de Beaune’s most prestigious appellations, applying meticulous vineyard practices and severe selection. In the cellar, Boillot is known for his highly controlled fermentations, extended lees aging, and finely judged use of oak, always in service of structure rather than overt richness. His white wines, in particular, are celebrated for their intensity wrapped in tension and clarity. Meursault plays a central role in the domaine’s identity, interpreted with discipline and mineral focus rather than excess opulence. Les Gouttes d’Or is among the most expressive and structured sites in the appellation.
