Domaine Henri Boillot is thus renowned worldwide for wines that combine precision, purity and elegance.

The Vineyard

This iconic Grand Cru from the Côte de Nuits lies mainly within the commune of Chambolle-Musigny, with a small portion extending into Morey-Saint-Denis. The Bonnes-Mares vineyard rests on complex soils, combining red clay-rich earth with white limestone marls. This geological diversity gives the vines deep roots, allowing them to produce wines of great richness and remarkable structure.
