Boillot/Henri Volnay 1er cru Les Frémiets 2005

93 points Allen Meadows (Burghound): "This too is quite ripe yet slightly fresher with airy and high-toned red pinot fruit that gives way to detailed and intensely mineral-infused flavors that retain a lovely sense of purity and refinement on the balanced, long and penetrating finish. This is an exercise in harmony and transparency. In a word, terrific. Drink: 2013+. (Apr 2007)"

93 points Bettane & Desseauve's Guide to the Wines of France: "The domaine's great specialty for reds: more supple, tender, and quickly open than the two other Premiers Crus; just as much charm, but more accessible. (2011)"

91 points Stephen Tanzer (International Wine Cellar): "Deep ruby-red. Brooding aromas and flavors of black fruits, licorice, smoked meat and pepper. Very sweet but tight, with intense flavors currently overshadowed by the wine's powerful structure. Finishes very long, with hints of game and leather. (Mar/Apr 2008)"
