Information
Based in Pommard, Domaine Jean-Marc Boillot was founded in 1985. Jean-Marc Boillot began his career at Domaine Olivier Leflaive before establishing his own estate. Today, he is gradually handing over the reins to his daughter Lydie, his son-in-law and his son Benjamin. The vineyard extends across 11 hectares, spanning the appellations of Meursault, Pommard, Puligny-Montrachet, Chassagne-Montrachet, Beaune, Rully, Montagny and Volnay. The estate also purchases grapes to complement its own production. Jean-Marc Boillot also owns two estates in the Languedoc, Les Roques and Les Truffières, which are chiefly devoted to the production of rosé.
The Puligny-Montrachet premier cru La Truffière from Jean-Marc Boillot is a single-varietal Chardonnay cultivated in marl- and chalk-rich soil. To craft it, the domain opted for sustainable growing that involves healthy competition between the vines, ploughing that encourages the roots to push deeper, and harvests by hand using small cases. In the winery, the grapes are vinified in whole bunches. Both alcoholic and malolactic fermentation are completed, with weekly stirring to keep the lees suspended. The wine is matured in oak casks and bottled without fining or filtering.
After a few years of ageing, this wine reveals a golden yellow hue with varied, aromatic notes of white fruit, white flowers, nut, butter, and baking. The palate carries these same flavours as well as a richness balanced by frank minerality and a masterful acidity.
