  • Goedhuis, December 2022

    The name Craipillots is a reference to the stony soils in the vineyard, which surely have an influence on the very mineral nature of this wine. Shining purple colour, spiced chocolate and vanilla oak nose, crystalline and Turkish Delight fruit flavours. A wine full of energy and directness, uplifting and refreshing on the finish.

  • Neal Martin, January 2023, Score: 91-93

    The 2021 Gevrey-Chambertin Craipillot 1er Cru is more backward, less expressive on the nose than the Au Closeau. Light blue fruit permeate the brambly red fruit, with hints of cold black tea and bay leaf. The palate is medium-bodied with finely-chiselled tannins, elegant and refined. The 60% new oak is neatly enmeshed on the finish. Good potential here. Drink 2024-2040.

  • Burghound, January 2023, Score: 89-92

    Hints of crushed leaf suffuses the red and dark currant aromas where touches of spice and violet add a touch of elegance. The lilting and refined flavors possess a succulent mid-palate where the lingering finish is a bit longer as well as better-balanced. Drink 2029+

  • Jasper Morris MW, December 2022, Score: 90-92

    15% whole bunch vinification and 60% new wood. Mid crimson colour, with a reductive nose. A little more depth of fruit than Closeau, a briary touch to the strawberry fruit, a refreshing acidity through the middle before a softer finish. Drink from 2025-2030.

This substantial Gevrey Chambertin domaine is under the guardianship of a collaborative family team: parents Christine and Philippe, and children Caroline and Nicolas. They have an embarrassment of riches within their armoury of four 1ers Crus and six exceptional Grands Crus, culminating with plots of both Clos de Bèze and Le Musigny. They also boast one of the finest two storey cellars in the Côte d’Or, built by members of the Prussian military on their way back from the Hundred Years War, with ideal conditions maintaining perfect temperatures for Philippe’s preferred two-year élevage in cask.The wines are ripe, concentrated, and often earthy and textured. They offer terrific value, particularly in Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru.Read less

Region

Gevrey Chambertin

The greatest village in terms of notable grand cru vineyards, Gevrey Chambertin has no less than 9 of them including its most famous Chambertin and Chambertin Clos de Bèze, and includes a premier cru vineyard that many people deem grand cru in quality - Clos St. Jacques. It encompasses approximately 400 hectares under vine also making it the largest top quality vineyard area in the Côte de Nuits. Gevrey-Chambertin has many followers who seek out its deeply coloured, robust and textured wines. They are often firmer than the neighbouring appellations of Chambolle Musigny and Vosne Romanée and can take several years to soften once released. Due to its size and reputation, the list of excellent producers is noteworthy and many are worth seeking out.
