2019 Gevrey-Chambertin Premier Cru Cherbaudes Louis Boillot, Burgund (0,75l)

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate - 2019 Gevrey-Chambertin Premier Cru Cherbaudes, Louis Boillot

The king of the cellar is the 2019 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Cherbaudes, a striking wine from vines planted more than 100 years ago. Unwinding in the glass with a complex bouquet of cherries, cassis and wild berries mingled with hints of black truffle, rose petals and warm spices, it's medium to full-bodied, deep and concentrated, its chassis of ripe, powdery tannin entirely concealed by an ample core of fruit. Seamless and complete, it concludes with a long, expansive finish. - William Kelley, Jan. 2022

Allen Meadows' Burghound - 2019 Gevrey-Chambertin Premier Cru Cherbaudes, Louis Boillot

A more elegant array of red currant, spice and a lovely range of floral elements serves as a lovely introduction to the sleeker and more refined medium weight flavors that possess an appealing sense of underlying tension while delivering outstanding length on the balanced finale. This youthfully austere effort is quite firm though the supporting tannins are relatively fine-grained. This too is worthy of your interest. - Allen Meadows, Jan. 2021
