To my palate, Gérard Boulay is undoubtedly on the top tier of producers in Chavignol. His wines have a vibrant purity, evident ripeness, feel devoid of any raw varietal character and reflect the soils from which they are born. Indeed, in terms of purity and daringly racy, I do wonder whether he shouldn't be placed at the very top of the tier. I certainly find his wines sufficiently exciting, breath-taking in their assured poise, to suggest this might be the case

The Boulay style is a world away from the regular refreshing but forgettable norm... [it] should really be compared with a white burgundy in terms of its rewards and complexity

Limpid orange-pink. Highly perfumed aromas of mineral-tinged red berries and citrus fruits, plus a suave floral nuance that gains strength as the wine opens up. Concentrated yet lithe on the palate, offering intense red currant, bitter cherry, rose pastille and anise flavors that unfurl and turn sweeter on the back half. The mineral and floral notes return on the penetrating finish, which hangs on with strong tenacity.
