Lucien Boillot, Gevrey-Chambertin Les Evocelles, 2010 CS20230611 Natural-wine Cote-Rotie from the southernDomaine Lucien Boillot sits in the heart of the Cote de Nuits, a family estate now run by Pierre Boillot, a master of terroir driven red Burgundy who favors old vines and a light hand in the cellar. Les Evocelles is an upper slope lieu dit in the northern reaches of Gevrey Chambertin, adjacent to several premier cru sites, and Boillot treats it with the same care, off vines averaging over fifty years old. It drinks like a premier cru in all but name.
