- "Outstanding Top Value"- Burghound: "(from vineyards in Santenay, Marsannay and the lower portions of Volnay). A fresh, ripe and relatively elegant nose consists of various red berry aromas cut with hints of plum and earth. There is both good volume and energy to the caressing and utterly delicious middle weight flavors that display an interesting contrast as the finish has a bittersweet character. This is quite good for its level and should be capable of rewarding a few years of aging as well." - Allen Meadows, Burghound
- “Opening in the glass with aromas of sweet wild berries, peonies and a subtle touch of oak, Boillot's 2018 Bourgogne Pinot Noir is medium-bodied, delicate and lively, its succulent core of fruit framed by melting tannins. Drink 2020-2035.”- William Kelley, Wine Advocate
