  • Goedhuis, December 2022

    This is a fine cuvée made from eight different parcels of Gevrey Chambertin that the domaine owns in the village. Characters of hedgerow and wild forest fruits. A bright and energetic style, a little less bold than some years, with more suave Chambolle typicity. Tremendously appealing, with a long, refined finish.

  • Neal Martin, November 2022, Score: 86-88

    The 2021 Gevrey-Chambertin Village has a light nose with crushed stone and airy red fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with pliant tannins that frame smoothly textured blueberry and dark cherries, though there is little grip on the finish. That said, it will provide pleasurable early drinking for several years. Drink 2024-2029

  • Burghound, January 2023, Score: 89-91

    There is an overtly sauvage element to the ultra-fresh aromas of wild red cherry, raspberry and forest floor character. The rich, vibrant and detailed medium weight flavors possess just a bit more overall depth on the youthfully austere, balanced and sneaky long finish. This understated and very pretty effort should develop more richness with a few years of keeping. Drink 2028+

  • Jancis Robinson, January 2023, Score: 16.5+

    Cask sample. Juicy and easy – much more transparent than most. Long and fun. Drink 2025 – 2038

  • Jasper Morris MW, November 2022, Score: 88-91

    Greater depth of colour here, with a more reductive nose – nothing ugly or firmly entrenched. Vibrant vigorous red fruit, a little spicy and saline finish, stays lively and the fruit finishes by taking a more floral aspect. Quite good persistence. Drink from 2025-2029.

Louis is the seventh generation of vignerons in Burgundy from a family who is mostly known for their Côte de Beaune wines such as Pommard and Volnay however, several Côte de Nuits appellations including Gevrey Chambertin were added to the repertoire in 1978. Many of these are parcels of extremely old vines, and the wines have a natural concentration and silky persistence. Today Louis vinifies and ages his wines in Chambolle Musigny in the same cellar as his other half, Ghislaine Barthod. In fact, it has been said that his influences have helped create the celestial beauties that have risen from her vineyards. Both are ably assisted by their son, Clément. He has been instrumental in Louis Boillot’s recent purchase of vineyards in Beaujolais, Moulin à Vent, where these skilled Burgundians bring their expertise to the Gamay grape.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.
