Robert Parker Wine Advocate William Kelley - 18 Jan 24
The 2021 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Evocelles was hit by both frost and hail but has nonetheless delivered a lovely wine redolent of cassis, wild berries, blood orange and peony. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and suave, with succulent acids and a mineral finish, it's defined by purity and precision.
