Goedhuis, December 2016
Sweet intense loganberries, layered and full. Its broad shoulders are draped by the refined red fruits that flow all the way through the palate.

Neal Martin, December 2016, Score: 89-91
The 2015 Gevrey Chambertin Village comes from eight parcels scattered around the appellation (Mon. Boillot did list them for me, but let's say they are from respectable lieux-dits and the average age of vine is 50 years). The bouquet is cohesive and focused with plenty of ripe mulberry and red plum fruit laced with subtle damp earth aromas. The palate is nimble on its toes: very well balanced with fine poise, crisp red cherry and strawberry with a judicious amount of salinity urging you back for another sip on the finish. Excellent. Drink 2019 - 2029

Burghound, January 2017
There is a hint of the sauvage present on the kirsch and earth-scented aromas. The rich, full-bodied and intense flavors possess both ample minerality and muscle before terminating in a gorgeously textured, long and impressive complex finale. Villages level Gevrey rarely gets much better than this. Highly recommended. Outstanding. Top value. (89-92)/2023+

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.
