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

93-94/100 PP The Chevillon 2008 Nuits-St.-Georges Les Vaucrains projects an amazing sense of deep, dark concentration. Latakia tobacco; peat; rushed stone; roasted red meats; soy; and ripe, fresh blackberry inform the nose and absolutely stain the palate. The tannins here are as ultra-fine as they are formidable, and the tug on my salivary glands as relentless as are the finishing flavors. If this doesn’t leave you reaching for a napkin or your lips fluttering, probably no wine will. The energy and salinity here render a wine that you feel as if you must strain through your teeth nonetheless fleet-of-foot, enticing, and invigorating. (David Schildknecht, robertparker.com) A fairly sustained colour, a powerful nose that hints at the reserve. In its youthful prime: wild summer fruits, sloe, blackberry; it evolves towards plant nuances: oak bark, animal nuances: venison. In the mouth, a robust structure, fullness dominated by liveliness and firmness. Austere in its youth, it requires a good ten years to calm down and confirm its fullness and race. (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.
