Vinous - Neal Martin (92)
The 2015 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Chaignots 1er Cru has plenty of red fruit on the nose, still tightly wound after ten years. The palate is surprisingly structured, so much so that I thought it was a Les Saint-Georges. There is a touch of cough candy popping up on the finish with a spicy aftertaste. Very fine.Inc. GSTSG$894.24 -

Offering up aromas of wild blueberries, cassis, dark chocolate and spices, the 2018 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Chaignots is medium to full-bodied, fleshy and supple, with succulent acids and powdery tannins. This is one of the more charming, immediate premiers crus in the Chevillon cellar.Inc. GSTSG$1,637.09 -

Aromas of cherries, cassis and rose petal preface the 2023 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Chaignots, a medium-bodied, supple and floral rendition of this northern Nuits premier cru. It will offer a broad drinking window.Inc. GSTSG$910.59 -

The 2009 Nuits St. Georges Les Perrieres possesses gorgeous purity and integrity from start to finish. Exotic hints of allspice, tar, smoke and camphor add elements of darkness to the Perrieres. This is an especially brooding, inward wine that will require considerable bottle age to soften, even if occasional elements of sweetness and accessibility suggest I may be erring on the side of caution. The Perrieres has maintained great freshness and overall energy. Anticipated maturity: 2019-2039.Inc. GSTSG$2,004.95 -
(12x75cl) 2011Vinous (87-90)
Bright medium red. Bitter chocolate and a whiff of violet on the nose. Quite reticent on the palate, offering flavors of black raspberry and chocolate. Comes across as a bit tannic, even dry, with a firming note of crushed stone. This needs a racking and is very difficult to decipher today.Inc. GSTSG$3,023.44 -

Chevillon's 2012 Nuits-Saint-Georges Les Perrieres is striking. Iron, smoke, dark red fruit and menthol blossom in the glass as the wine fills out beautifully. The 2012 is wonderuflly complete, with great balance of fruit and structure. Readers will have to be patient with the 2012, but it is fabulous.Inc. GSTSG$2,205.94 -
(12x75cl) 2014Wine Advocate (90-92)
The 2014 Nuits St Georges 1er Cru les Perrières comes from 0.6 hectares of 51-year-old vines. It has a vibrant, pastille-like bouquet with ebullient black cherries intermingling with fresh strawberry and fig aromas, a little more exotic than its 2014 siblings. The palate is all about the texture: silky smooth, Vosne-Romanée like in mouthfeel with a very harmonious, feminine, seductive finish that disguises the mineralité underneath. That said, I perhaps prefer the structure of the Ronciers. Still, this is very fine.Inc. GSTSG$2,058.79 -
Wine Advocate (92-94)
The 2018 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Perrières was showing especially well, mingling aromas of cassis and dark chocolate with savory nuances of loamy soil and grilled squab in an incipiently complex bouquet. Medium to full-bodied, layered and concentrated, it's lively and precise, with terrific tension despite the richness and power of the vintage.Inc. GSTSG$1,879.60 -

The colour offers a huge depth of royal purple. A most impressive bouquet, weight and concentration without heaviness, very stony beneath which helps to leaven the power of the fruit. Drink from 2031-2037. Tasted Nov 2024.Inc. GSTSG$952.01 -
(12x75cl) 2018Vinous (92-94)
The 2018 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Pruliers 1er Cru has a very perfumed and floral bouquet with wilted rose petal and touches of lavender infusing the mainly red berry fruit. I appreciate the detail and delineation of this N.S.G. The palate is very fine and matched with a superb line of acidity, the lively red fruit laced with subtle hickory and white pepper notes, fanning out nicely toward the finish while maintaining superb freshness. This is perhaps the most immediately enjoyable of Chevillon’s 2018s.Inc. GSTSG$1,833.29 -

Not so deep in colour and as a result more prettily perfumed, the floral side of raspberry. Balanced structure with firm tannins and very good length. A punch down and a pump over every day explains the structure. Drink from 2032-2037. Tasted Nov 2024.Inc. GSTSG$952.01 -
Vinous (87-90)
Bright red-ruby. Cherry, redcurrant, leather and tobacco; offers a noble Nuits-Saint-Georges rusticity. Broad and sweet, with good minerality but a lower pitch than the Perrieres. A bit less open today owing to the later end to the malolactic fermentation. Finishes with substantial chewy tannins and hints of tobacco and leather.Inc. GSTSG$4,276.94 -
Vinous (92-94)
The 2012 Nuits-Saint-Georges Les Roncières is mesmerizing upon the first impression. Deep, rich, beautifully resonant layers of dark red/black fruit, smoke, cloves and new leather blossom in the glass. The Roncières is incredibly sumptuous for a young Nuits, but even so, there is plenty of detail in the glass. Most importantly, though, the 2012 also appears to be holding quite a bit in reserve, suggesting its best days are off somewhere in the future.Inc. GSTSG$1,268.17 -
Wine Advocate (91-93)
The 2014 Nuits St Georges 1er Cru les Roncières comes from a hectare of 52-year-old vines planted on limestone-rich soils. It has a comparatively ripe bouquet with fleshy red cherries, tinned apricot and crushed strawberry fruit; it is more forward than the Bousselots, but maybe without the same degree of accuracy. The palate is tighter than the nose suggests, nicely structured with very pure strawberry and red cherry fruit; there is a mineral vein coming through on the elegant, poised finish. If the nose improves by the time of bottling, then this will be a lovely Roncières.Inc. GSTSG$268.03 -
Decanter (95)
This premier cru's position on the south side of Nuits, just below Les Perrières, means that it has a high limestone content and it shows in the freshness of the resulting wine. It's bright, perfumed and focussed, with stylish 30% new wood integration, plenty of structure and depth and a poised finish.Inc. GSTSG$2,165.74 -
Vinous (92-94)
The 2020 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Roncières 1er Cru, which was affected by hail, had just a small reduction on the nose. The palate is easier to read with attractive, quite tensile red cherry and blueberry fruit. The oak is nicely integrated here and there is a sorbet-like freshness on the finish that has plenty of joie-de-vivre. It’s a wine that almost says...what hail?Inc. GSTSG$1,026.19 -

Vinous (91-94)
Good ruby-red. High-pitched, pristine nose offers raspberry coulis, minerals and fresh flowers. Wonderfully fine-grained and sweet but with a medicinal reserve today. This very rich, superripe wine offers insinuating intensity. Its superb underlying fat is hidden by tangy acidity and firm structure. Finishes very sweet, stylish and long. An outstanding showing, and a classic example of this vintage at its best.Inc. GSTSG$2,767.29 -

Chevillon's 2012 Nuits-Saint-Georges Les Saint-Georges is magnificent, but it also is going to need quite a bit of time to fully come together. At times powerful and brooding, while at others much more restrained, the 2012 reveals a totally striking, multi-faceted personality. Layers of dark fruit, smoke, tar and spices take shape in the glass, but even with all of its intensity, the 2012 is never over the top. What a gorgeous wine this is.Inc. GSTSG$1,362.17 -
Vinous (93-95)
Bright medium red. Discreet, pristine scents of dark cherry, flowers and crushed rock. Wonderfully rich and fine-grained, offering outstanding inner-mouth tension to its medicinal red cherry and licorice flavors complicated by minerals, spices and flowers. Less accessible today than the Cailles (Chevillon noted that in November it was the other way around) but this wine really dances on the palate and rises inexorably on the sappy, mouthcoating finish.Inc. GSTSG$4,967.04 -
Wine Advocate (94)
Cassis and black raspberry take on both liqueur-like richness and distillate-like high tones in the Chevillon 2006 Nuits-St.-Georges Les Vaucrains - analogous to the expression of ripeness in other wines of this collection. And here, too, the roasted sense of low-toned richness suggests chocolate and peat, while bitter notes of fruit pit and iodine add welcome contrast and further basis for fugal interchange of flavors in a long, intensely concentrated finish. On the one hand, this seems more embryonic than its fellow crus, but on the other hand its opulence and interplay of flavors are already utterly seductive and intriguing. In any case, however much of this one acquires, it would be foolish not to stretch those bottles out over a dozen or more years.Inc. GSTSG$3,059.54 -
Wine Advocate (94+)
The 2009 Nuits St. Georges Les Vaucrains is fascinating to taste after Les St. Georges. In 2010 the Vaucrains is more finessed and elegant than the St. Georges, but in 2009 those rules are reversed, as it is the Vaucrains that comes across as far more imposing, inward and structured. Today the Vaucrauins is implosive and seems to be holding back much of its potential. Firm yet well-integrated tannins frame the fruit through to the tense, wiry finish. The Vaucrains needs to be buried in a deep, cold cellar for several years, perhaps considerably longer, although I am optimist by nature. Anticipated maturity: 2019-2039.Inc. GSTSG$361.77 -
Decanter (95)
Les Vaucrains is marked by its proximity to the combe at the southern end of Nuits-St-Georges, which gives the wine an added lift of freshness. Like Les St-Georges which abuts it, this is quite a firm, shuttered wine with an overlay of 30% new wood, good concentration, fine tannins and enough backbone and acidity to age.Inc. GSTSG$1,349.92 -
Wine Advocate (93-95)
The 2018 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Vaucrains is powerful and muscular, opening in the glass with aromas of cassis, ripe wild blueberries, dark chocolate, rose petals, rich soil tones and smoked meats. Full-bodied, rich and muscular, it's deep and concentrated, with a serious chassis of ripe, powdery tannins, lively acids and a long, resonant finish. As usual, this is the most powerful wine in the Chevillon cellar.Inc. GSTSG$1,827.84 -

The 2021 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Vaucrains 1er Cru has a light nose with brambly black fruit, loamy touches of damp undergrowth emerging with time and, after ten minutes, dried violet petals. The palate is medium-bodied with chalky tannins. Vibrant and tensile, though a little leaner towards the finish due to the vintage, this is fresh and sapid but perhaps more for earlier drinking. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.Inc. GSTSG$1,710.65

Burgundy is Pinot Noir’s spiritual home, and nowhere in the world better illustrates terroir than here. Two vineyards side by side result in wines with subtle yet intricate differences in structure and aromatic profile – and often not so subtle differences in price.
