  • Goedhuis, January 2007

    Les Evocelles is a lieu dit at the north end of the appellation. Due to its terraced situation (rather than the flat valley floor), it is able to produce exceptionally ripe fruit that shows true character and depth. Though tightly wound, it displays pretty, crunchy fruit and minerals that culminate in a long, lingering finish. Definitely premier cru-like in quality.

  • Burghound, January 2007, Score: 89-91

    An airy and exceptionally fresh and enveloping nose of red and blue berry fruits with hints of earth dissolve into mineral-infused, rich and beautifully refined flavors, particularly for a villages level Gevrey, that are textured and possess ample amounts of dry extract. The finish is precise and detailed if not as complex as the best in the range. Drink: 2013+.Comments: outstanding!

  • Jancis Robinson, January 2007, Score: 17+

    Deep and mossy notes on the nose. Lively and not desperately intense but well balanced and quite mild. Neat and not attention-seeking. May well flower and become something more splendid.

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.

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.
