  • Goedhuis, July 2017

    Louis has the good fortune to own many parcels of extremely old vines around the Côte d’Or, and he capitalises on this good luck by making hugely enjoyable, classical wines in his cellar in Chambolle Musigny, which he shares with his wife, Ghislaine Barthod. This Gevrey is a gem of a wine, with red fruit and floral driven intensity. Complex fruit and spice flavours are accompanied by a long and concentrated finish. It punches well above its village classification.

  • Neal Martin, December 2013, Score: 89-91

    The 2012 Gevrey-Chambertin Village comes from six parcels, all populated by 60-year old vines. It has a fragrant, floral bouquet that is actually reminiscent of a Morey Saint Denis. It is well defined and offers attractive red fruits mixed with a little white pepper. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red and black fruit on the entry. It has a grainy texture, quite solid in the mouth with that white pepper note reappearing towards the finish. Good matière here - the old vines showing their currency.

  • Burghound, Janaury 2014, Score: 89-91

    A relatively deeply pitched nose of dark berries, plum, earth, humus and sauvage notes offers fine complexity. There is good refinement to the focused and muscular medium-bodied flavors that display a discreet minerality on the austere and saline finish. This is very Gevrey but without the rusticity.Drink 2020+

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.
