Gevrey Chambertin Les Evocelles 2020
The 2020 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Evocelles brilliantly captures the essence of its high-altitude terroir. Crafted from vines perched on the steep northern slopes of the appellation, this wine showcases the masterful balance between power and elegance that defines premier cru Gevrey-Chambertin.
The bouquet is profoundly aromatic, offering layers of black cherry, earthy forest floor notes, and refined spice nuances – a testament to both the thoughtful 14-18 month French oak aging and Charlopin's traditional vinification methods. On the palate, the wine displays remarkable depth, with succulent fruit flavors beautifully framed by structured tannins. A distinctive chalky minerality runs through the wine, reflecting its distinctive terroir.
This is a wine of profound character and sophistication, embodying the height of Burgundian craftsmanship and the exceptional potential of Les Evocelles' privileged site.
