Robert Chevillon Nuits-Saint-Georges Les Roncieres 1er Cru

92/100 PP The 2005 Nuits-St.-Georges Les Roncieres offers a fascinating Cabernet Franc-like hint of machine oil along with ripe red cherry, tobacco, cedar, and wood smoke in the nose. Clean, sweet, bright fruit makes for an intense and refreshing palate impression and the finish introduces carnal notes, faint bitterness of herbal concentrate, persistent ripe red fruit with invigorating tart fruit skin notes, and a hint of new wood that Chevillon says is there because this wine was so late to go through malo and to be racked out of its initial one-third new wood and into older barrels. (David Schildknecht, robertparker.com) A wine with a sustained colour. Lively fruitiness associated with fine liquorice and plant notes underlines a wine with a linear structure that expresses harshness and freshness with an austere note. (Domaine Robert Chevillon) Our domain has been historically deeply attached to growing vines for 4 generations. We have the privilege of working a world-renowned terroir. Our expertise has its roots in tradition, but is also inspired by modern methods, pushing us naturally towards creating fine wines. The domain covers an area of 13 hectares of vines, mostly red Premier Crus (8). Guyot pruning is used. The final result is structured, fruity, elegant, fine and complex wines, made to be kept.
