🍷 Domaine Lucien Boillot et Fils 2021 Gevrey‑Chambertin 1er Cru “Les Cherbaudes” – Burgundy, France (MAGNUM 1.5 L)


📝 Tasting Notes

The 2021 Domaine Lucien Boillot et Fils Gevrey‑Chambertin 1er Cru “Les Cherbaudes” is a refined, terroir‑driven Pinot Noir from one of Burgundy’s most revered Premier Cru vineyards. Crafted by Pierre Boillot, a steadfast traditionalist who shuns modern shortcuts in favor of meticulous handwork and gentle cellar practices, this wine captures the soul of Gevrey‑Chambertin with authenticity and grace.

The Les Cherbaudes climat, positioned just below the legendary Chambertin Clos de Bèze, offers a perfect balance between structure and elegance. The vineyard’s clay‑limestone soils and 100‑year‑old vines (planted 1922) yield small berries of intense concentration and aromatic purity.

In the glass, the wine shimmers a luminous ruby red. Aromas unfold with wild strawberry, red cherry, rose petal, orange zest, and sous‑bois, followed by subtle touches of spice, graphite, and crushed stone. The palate is silky yet firm, expressing delicate red‑fruit precision framed by fine, chalky tannins and lively acidity. The finish is long, pure, and mineral‑driven, leaving a lingering echo of red currant and earth that is quintessentially Burgundy.

This 1.5‑liter Magnum edition magnifies the aging potential, allowing the wine to develop gracefully over decades. A genuine collector’s bottle for those who cherish the elegance of traditional Côte de Nuits winemaking.
