About this Item
In 1961, Jean-Claude Boisset, a brave and tenacious 18-year-old, founded his négociant business in Nuits-St.-Georges. Jean-Claude’s first parcel of land was located in Gevrey-Chambertin and, today, the winery is based in Les Ursulines – a former convent in Nuits-Saint-Georges. An artisanal Burgundy producer with a bold and authentic style, the winery is now in the hands of his children, Jean-Charles and Nathalie. The current winemaker Grégory Patriat strives for authentic wines in which human intervention has been kept to a bare minimum. Utilising native yeasts, the wines are concentrated, well-rounded, and naturally express their terroirs. The winery embraces the philosophy devised by the Boisset family where the winemaker is as much engaged in the vineyards as in the cellars, building close partnerships with the growers to achieve the highest quality grapes.

Critics Ratings
‘Chewy, phenolic palate with a lovely caramel character alongside the ripe apple fruit and plump palate. Layered and pithy on the finish – this is substantial and ageworthy. Good stuff!’ - Richard Hemming MW, JancisRobinson.com, 17.5/20 (Jan 2017)
