  • Goedhuis, December 2022

    Champonnets is superbly positioned between the lower slopes of the Combe St Jacques and the heartland of Gevrey’s Grands Crus vineyards. Shining brick red colour, this is a vibrant and fresh wine, full of cherry and cranberry. The tannins are so fine, there is so much elegance to this wine and the bite of crunchy freshness enlivens the palate on the finish.

  • Burghound, January 2023, Score: 90-92

    This is aromatically similar to the Evocelles though the fruit is a bit more deeply pitched as it includes hints of dark currant and plum. The delicious and tension filled flavors are also on the lighter side, and particularly so for what is typical for Champonnets, all wrapped in an impressively persistent, youthfully austere and beautifully delineated finish. This could use better depth but it’s already quite pretty. Drink 2029+

  • Jasper Morris MW, November 2022, Score: 90-93

    A bigger crop in 2021 than ‘22 because of hail the following year. A lighter colour, slightly evolved even, with a full flush of soft strawberry fruit A delightful lighter but fine red fruit on the palate, a drier note at the finish as one or two tannins express themselves, then an attractive long finish. Elegant. Drink from 2026-2031.

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.
