Vinous Neal Martin - 01 Dec 21
The 2020 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Evocelles 1er Cru has a nose where you might misconstrue contains some stems - there are none, it is just very peppery. The palate is medium-bodied with ripe fleshy red berry fruit, fine acidity, just a little coarsness on the finish that should be remedied during its élevage. Fine.

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.
