Monthélie Premier Cru, Clos des Champs Fulliot, Domaine Éric Boigelot, 2018

We're always keeping our eyes peeled for top value producers in Burgundy, and certainly Éric Boigelot is one of the most exciting we've found to date.

The domaine is next door to Raphael Coche Dury - to whom Éric is selling grapes, including all his Narvaux (sadly!). Coche no longer writes domaine on the label because of the need to source fruit externally – an amount of which comes from Éric. "If it's good enough for Coche, it's good enough for you" should be the strapline here...

Éric's 2018 Monthélie Clos des Champs Fulliot offers vibrant red fruit flavours layered with earthy undertones and well-integrated tannins. With its balanced acidity and long finish, it pairs beautifully with a variety of dishes such as roasted duck, coq au vin, pork tenderloin, mushroom risotto, and soft-ripened cheeses. It also complements dishes with earthy flavours and herbs like thyme, rosemary, and sage.
