Gevrey Chambertin les Evocelles 2015 Domaine Denis Bachelet

Professional reviews

Robert Parker (95)

The 2015 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Evocelles has a crystalline bouquet with black cherries, briary, cold stone and hints of orange rind, all beautifully delineated. If this is not a premier cru quality nose, then it is grand cru. Quote me: The palate is medium-bodied with supple, lace-like tannin. This is disarmingly beautiful, pure red cherry and strawberry fruit pricked with energy and frisson, whilst the finish exudes precision. Perhaps the best Les Evocelles that I have ever tasted from Denis Bachelet, maybe from any winemaker. Three barrels produced. Grab one.

Not especially deep crimson. Very fine perfume with lots of sweetness but also very pure stoniness, with a hint of cassis actually. Please all. Pure and unforced.
