Currently one of the most-talked producers from Burgundy, Henri Boillot is well-known for creating impressive, world-class wines that are a testimony to the meticulous work they carry out throughout the wine-making process. Their whites offer excellent purity attributed to the absence of chemicals, fruitness from the ripe grapes they pick and freshness from aging in larger barrels.
