The Puligny-Montrachet Les Folatières 1er Cru 2020 is a beautifully proportioned Chardonnay, marrying the generosity of the vintage with the cru’s innate elegance. Aromas of ripe pear, lemon oil, white peach, and acacia blossom unfold alongside notes of crushed limestone, hazelnut, and subtle spice. On the palate, the wine is expansive yet poised, driven by vibrant acidity and a finely etched mineral core. A refined creaminess supports flavors of citrus zest, almond, and orchard fruit without softening the wine’s focus. As it opens, saline and lightly smoky nuances add depth and complexity. The finish is long, precise, and resonant—an outstanding Folatières that balances richness, tension, and age-worthy structure.
Domaine Henri Boillot is one of Burgundy’s most exacting estates, revered for its relentless focus on precision, balance, and terroir expression. Based in Volnay, the domaine applies severe selection in the vineyards, harvesting at optimal ripeness to preserve freshness while achieving depth. In the cellar, Boillot’s approach is highly controlled—long lees aging and carefully judged oak are used to build structure without overt richness. His white wines are defined by intensity framed by tension, never excess. Puligny-Montrachet is interpreted with mineral clarity and discipline. Les Folatières, one of the appellation’s most complete Premier Crus, is prized for its natural harmony between power and finesse.
