A sweet-smoky, Cabernet Franc-like suggestion of machine oil scents Boillot's 2006 Chambolle-Musigny, which originates in the non-cru acreage of Beaux Bruns. Fresh, tart red fruits, brown spices, and salt make for an invigorating display on a firmly but finely tannic palate. This lacks a bit of refinement or succulence, but I suspect it may not have recovered entirely from bottling when I was last able to taste it. Still, I suspect that it will be best consumed relatively young. Louis Boillot fields a diverse array of appellations reflecting in large part his Volnaysien grandfather's having become established in Gevrey. (For more about this family, see my report on Louis's brother Pierre in this issue. Like the wines of his wife Ghislaine Barthod – with whom he shares a facility in Chambolle – most of Louis Boillot's 2006s had not yet been bottled when I last tasted them.)Importer: Rosenthal Wine Merchant, Pine Plains, NY; tel.
