Tasting Notes

Previously released under the Domaine Boisson-Vadot label, the wines from this domaine are now made and presented under the labels of Bernard Boisson’s children, Pierre Boisson and Anne Boisson. Although Pierre and Anne vinify separately, they share the same cellar in Meursault and produce wines that are more similar than different. The vines are notably old, with many plots over 60 years, and no herbicides or fertilizers are used. The wines are fermented naturally in barrels and aged in oak for 19-22 months, with no more than 30% new oak used mainly for the top cuvées.

The Monthelie Rouge is crafted from fruit with an average vine age of 40 years, sourced from three different parcels: Les Plantes, Les Longenes, and Les Sous Court. The vinification process includes a 5-hour cold maceration before fermentation in stainless steel, followed by pressing to barrel for 18 months in oak, with 20% new oak used.

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.
