Tasting notes

The vines are planted in a very shallow topsoil close to the limestone bedrock, conferring a wine of grace, with detailed, lifted fruit and a persistent stamp of mineral-infused fruit on the finish. Corbeaux abuts the Mazis-Chambertin grand cru and is similarly muscular in style.

See here our shipping policy.

Important Compliance Requirements

FedEx and other carriers we might occasionally use can only deliver wine to customers who are 21 years or older. Someone must be at the address to receive the package; carriers don't just drop a package and leave. They must ensure the person receiving the wine is 21 or older. Shipping to PO Boxes is not allowed.

Ship to a FedEx Store

If nobody can be at your address to sign for the package, you can have your order sent to a FedEx store instead. Enter your preferred FedEx store as the shipping address at checkout and we'll ship your order there. Once it arrives, you have 5 business days to pick it up, and you'll need to show your ID.

Re-shipping a Package

If a package is returned to us after three failed delivery attempts, we can only re-ship the wine upon payment of a re-shipping fee, to be determined based on the shipping address and number of bottles. Shipping wine is extremely expensive. We are sorry about this, but we have no other choice. Please make sure there's always someone at the address you enter as your shipping address.

If you'd like to receive a refund for a package that was returned to us after FedEx made three delivery attempts, we can do that but we must keep a $20 refund fee; FedEx charges us a lot of money for returns, unfortunately, I can't stress this enough.

Re-routing a Package

If you'd like to reroute a package after it's been shipped, we can do so for a $20 re-routing fee. We cannot re-route a package across state borders. For any change of address, please contact us as soon as possible, ideally within 1-2 days from placing the order or we cannot guarantee we'll be able to reroute or change your order's shipping address.

Canceling an Order

If you'd like to cancel an order after it's been shipped, we can do so upon payment of a small cancellation fee – the amount depends on the size of the order. Carriers charge us a lot of money to recall a package en-route.

Heat/Frost damage

We are not responsible for heat- or frost-related issues. We offer ice packs upon request, at a cost, but even so, we can't be held liable if it's 104 where you are and corks pop. Please let us know if you think that there could be heat-related issues. If we don't hear anything from you regarding weather issues before an order is shipped, or if you don't request a hold due to the weather, we are not responsible for heat/frost damage.

Placed an order. What next?

1. You will receive an order confirmation email with your order summary.*

2. As soon as your order ships from the warehouse, usually within 2-3 business days, this applies to all shipping rates, you will receive a shipping confirmation email with your tracking information. 2DAY shipping refers to shipping time; we still need 2-3 business days to prepare an order. We need to pick and pack, QA, add printed collateral, and palletize the orders.

3. Please track your package using the tracking service.

4. The carrier will attempt delivery a maximum of 3 times. After 3 delivery attempts, your package will be sent back to our warehouse.**

*Please ensure your email address is correct; otherwise, you will not receive the order and shipping confirmation emails.

**If delivery is attempted 3 times without success, or if you fail to retrieve your package from the carrier depot by the stated deadline, the shipping fee will not be refunded to the customer.

Returns Policy

If you are not satisfied with your purchase, please contact us at (424) 414-2040 or via e-mail at hello@primalwine.com between 9 am and 5 pm Pacific Standard Time, Monday through Sunday, we would like to understand and try to solve your concerns. We can offer refunds only as store credit.

Producer profile

Domaine Lucien Boillot et Fils

Lucien Boillot established the domaine in Gevrey-Chambertin in 1950 after leaving the family base in Volnay, where the Boillot family had held vines since 1850. He began acquiring Premier Cru parcels in the Côte de Nuits, while the Côte de Beaune holdings came through family inheritance and a transfer from his father in the 1980s. Pierre Boillot worked with Lucien and his brother Louis from 1982 and took over the domaine in 2003. The estate now covers 7 hectares, spans 16 appellations across the Côte de Beaune and Côte de Nuits, and produces about 35,000 bottles annually.

The domaine uses lutte raisonnée methods, with no chemical fertilizers, traditional plowing and soil work intended to support vineyard diversity and health. Harvesting is manual, and the estate reports moderate yields and indigenous yeasts. Its vines average about 55 years of age, while the Les Corbeaux parcel used for this cuvée was planted in 1960. Pinot Noir accounts for about 95% of estate production, with Chardonnay and Pinot Gris making up the remainder. The holdings include clay-limestone soils and vineyards in Gevrey-Chambertin, Nuits-Saint-Georges, Pommard, Volnay and Puligny-Montrachet.

Pierre Boillot directs the cellar and serves as winemaker and chef de culture. Grapes are generally destemmed, while fermentations rely on indigenous yeasts and limited extraction. The domaine vinifies its holdings in Gevrey-Chambertin and bottles the wines by gravity at the estate. Its cellar handles red and white wines from 16 appellations, including Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Pinot Gris. Traditional Burgundy vinification is used across the range, with élevage duration varying by vintage.

Wine region

Burgundy, France

Gevrey-Chambertin lies in the Côte de Nuits, south of Dijon, across the communes of Gevrey-Chambertin and Brochon. The vineyard belt forms the transition between the limestone plateaus of the Hautes Côtes to the west and the Bresse plain to the east. Premier Cru sites occupy roughly 280 to 380 metres, on shallow brown limestone soils, while village vines extend over brown calcic and brown calcareous soils. Marl layers are covered by scree and red silt washed from the plateau. Shell fossils occur in the clay-rich marls. Slopes face east to southeast, and the area receives southern influence on the Côte alongside continental, cooler conditions from altitude and relief.

The Gevrey-Chambertin AOC was initially recognized by decree on September 11, 1936. It is reserved for still red wines and includes 26 named Premier Cru climats and 9 Grand Crus, including Chambertin and Chambertin-Clos de Bèze. Pinot Noir is the principal grape, while Chardonnay, Pinot Blanc and Pinot Gris may be planted as accessory varieties up to 15% of each parcel. The appellation requires at least 9,000 vines per hectare, and Premier Cru yields are set at 48 hectolitres per hectare. Burgundy's quality structure moves from village to Premier Cru to Grand Cru rather than using Riserva or Gran Selezione tiers. This bottling is a Gevrey-Chambertin Premier Cru from Les Corbeaux.
