Tasting Notes

Vinous Neal Martin - 01 May 19
The 2013 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Evocelles is backward and quite masculine with tertiary scents dominating the red fruit. The palate is rather firm and unyielding. Here I am seeking more flesh to develop on the finish. So-so, considering the pedigree of the vineyard. Tasted at Goedhuis and Co.'s annual Burgundy tasting in London.

Gevrey-Chambertin

Gevrey-Chambertin, a prestigious Burgundy appellation in Côte de Nuits, is renowned for producing powerful Pinot Noir wines, often called the "King of Burgundy." These wines are known for bold flavours, complex aromas of dark cherries, blackcurrants, truffles, and spices, with robust structure and excellent ageing potential. The appellation includes nine Grand Cru vineyards, notably Chambertin and Chambertin-Clos de Bèze. Top producers like Domaine Armand Rousseau, Domaine Fourrier, and Domaine Denis Mortet craft wines that reflect the unique terroir and tradition of Gevrey-Chambertin.
