Tasting Notes

Anne and Pierre Boisson don’t make a lot of wine. So even with a 200-year family track record in Meursault - previously Domaine Boisson-Vadot - they lack the name recognition of some of the region’s icons. As a result, their fresh, mineral-driven bottlings represent some of the best values in all of White Burgundy.

The Producer

Pierre Boisson

The Boisson family's estate in Meursault spans 8.5 hectares, and they've been prominent winemakers in the region for over two centuries. Bernard Boisson and his two children, Pierre and Anne, share certain portions of the vineyard. While the wines are individually labelled as Boisson-Vadot, Pierre Boisson, and Anne Boisson, they're crafted using the same exact method. The vineyards are mainly in Meursault, with smaller plots in Auxey-Duresses, Monthelie, Pommard, and Beaune. Despite lacking organic certification, the estate refrains from using fertilizers or pesticides, opting for vine plowing to manage weeds and aerate the soil.

Traditional vinification is employed, with a manual harvest where grapes are sorted both in the vineyard and back at the estate before entering the vats. The wine matures in oak barrels for 15 to 18 months, occasionally longer depending on the vintage. Although new oak is sparingly used, there are no fixed rules regarding the percentage of new or old barrels; it depends on the vintage. The Domaine is adamant that the oak should never overshadow the wine's character. Bottling is carried out at the estate without filtration.
