Domaine Jean-Baptiste Boudier

Quietly spoken Jean-Baptiste Boudier debuted with the 2015 vintage. He oversees a small selection of wines in his tiny smallest barrel cellar in the heart of Pernand-Vergelesses, practically opposite Bonneau du Martray. “We harvested in two periods: 14-15 September and 19-22 September finishing with Les Fichots and Pernand Village,” Boudier told me. “Our soils are quite deep and clayey so they did not suffer hydric stress, but the Les Vignes Blanches did because they are on shallower soils. Next year I will get a Savigny Les Peuillets en fermage and Corton-Renardes. The reds are around 14.0°-14.2° and whites 13.5-13.8°. The yields were very small around 30hl/ha for Chardonnays, and 40hl/ha for reds.” It is good news for wine lovers that Boudier will have two more labels next year since he is clearly a talented winemaker who deserves more vines under his direction. Despite the hydric stress, I loved his Les Vignes Blanches. Bad news is that there will be fewer than 300 bottles, so maybe seek out his excellent Les Fichets instead. His Corton-Charlemagne, again a regrettably miniscule production, was also definitely one of the superior examples that I encountered out of many.
