Gevrey-Chambertin AOC Les Evocelles 2021 Domaine de la Vougeraie

Gevrey Chambertin Les Evocelles de La Vougeraie stands out for the careful management of its vineyard, which extends over approximately 3 hectares. This vineyard combines Pinot Noir vines of different ages, grown organically since 2001 on calcareous soil enriched with clay and silt. Its south-east position on a sloping hill favors excellent sun exposure, crucial for the ripening of the grapes.

The winemaking is followed by a five-day cold pre-fermentative maceration and a seventeen-day total fermentation without the use of yeasts or enzymes. The refinement lasts fifteen months in wooden barrels, of which 20% are new, coming from the Cîteaux forest, with a further month in stainless steel tanks.

This wine reveals a complex and nuanced bouquet, with fruity notes of cherry and blackberry that blend with earthy and spicy nuances, typical of the Gevrey Chambertin territory. On the palate, it offers a harmonious balance between fine tannins and fresh acidity, with a persistent finish that invites another sip.

Perfect in combination with red meats, game and mature cheeses, this Gevrey Chambertin Les Evocelles enhances dishes rich in flavour, promising to enrich every gastronomic experience with its elegance and complexity.
