Henri-Boillot is a renowned wine producer based in the Burgundy region of France.

Henri-Boillot is best known for its white wines, which are considered some of the finest in Burgundy. The estate produces a range of white wines, including Chardonnay, Pinot Blanc, and Aligoté.

In addition to its white wines, Henri-Boillot also produces some exceptional red wines. The estate's Pinot Noir wines are highly sought after, with a delicate balance of fruit and tannins that make them perfect for ageing. The red wines are produced using the same minimal intervention approach as the white wines, with a focus on expressing the unique characteristics of the terroir.

Overall, Henri-Boillot is a producer that is highly respected in the wine world.

The French Wine region of Burgundy (aka “Bourgogne”) may be small in size, but its influence is huge in the world of vino. The complexity of Burgundy can cast fear into the heart of even a seasoned wine pro, but fear not – the region need only be as complicated as you want it to be. Yes, it is home to some of the most expensive wines in the known universe, but there are also tasty and affordable wines.

Main grapes:

Pinot Noir originated in Burgundy and these vines cover 34% of the region, accounting for 29% of overall wine production. The red grape does extremely well in limestone and clay soil, which helps create their complexity. Pinot Noir wines from Burgundy range in colour from cherry to brick, are light in body, and typically have red fruit and spicy flavours. Gamay is a red grape also grown in Burgundy, but only makes up 10% of the vines.

Chardonnay is the primary grape for white wines in Burgundy, making up 48% of the vines and 68% of production. Chardonnay appreciates Burgundy’s marl soil, which gives it delicate floral, fruit, and mineral aromas and full-bodied flavours. Aligoté is the second white grape, accounting for 6% grown. {Read more about the ancient Aligoté grape in Burgundy.}

The region does produce a sparkling wine called Crémant de Bourgogne. It can be made from Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, Aligoté, Gamay, Sacy, and Melon. Varieties include blanc, blanc de blancs, blanc de noirs, and rosé.
