The 2014 Nuits St Georges 1er Cru les Bousselots comes from vines on more gravelly, silty soils. As such, it displays more volume and fruité on the nose compared to the 2014 Les Chaignots. This comes out and greets you with open arms with lovely, sumptuous blackberry and crushed strawberry aromas. The palate is very precise with fine tannin, black rather than red fruit with blood orange surfacing towards the precise finish, which does not have enormous persistence -- but it has so much freshness and elegance. This is just superb.Inc. TAX€932.14 -
Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (91-93)
Full fresh purple. A little oak here, matched by plenty of concentrated fruit. There is good tension on the palate, dark raspberry and plums, enough fruit weight. Drink from 2030-2035. Tasted Nov 2024.Inc. TAX€641.74 -
(12x75cl) 2005Vinous (91+)
Saturated, deep ruby-red. Liqueur-like black raspberry, blackberry and licorice aromas retain good freshness. Very large-scaled and dense, with superripe berry, licorice and chocolate flavors offering superb depth and sweetness. Perhaps a bit monolithic and powerful for a wine from this cellar, but obviously youthfully clenched today. The big tannins saturate the teeth. I'd put this away for a decade.Inc. TAX€2,703.07 -
(6x75cl) 2007Vinous - Stephen Tanzer (91-93)
Bright, deep red. Highly nuanced nose offers red raspberry, white pepper, crushed stone, smoke and truffle. Rich and broad but not overly sweet, with good stony reserve and piquant spice and pepper notes framing and lifting the berry and underbrush flavors. A broad and very rich style that's seamless today but serious and built for a slow evolution in bottle. Really saturates the palate with flavor on the aftertaste, finishing with sweet tannins and lovely lingering perfume.Inc. TAX€967.26 -
Vinous (91-94)
(racked in July) Deep, bright red. Superripe, complex nose melds berries, violet, damp earth and a whiff of balsamic vinegar. Wonderfully silky and suave on entry, then spicy and pure in the middle, with a very fresh black cherry flavor dominating underlying earth and floral notes. This spreads out impressively on the back end, with broad tannins saturating the palate.Inc. TAX€1,593.07 -
Vinous (92)
Good dark, bright red. Dark cherry, bitter chocolate and crushed stone on the nose. Broad, dry and refined, with a sweetness leavened by pungent red berry flavors complicated by spices, pepper and earth. Can't match the fruit intensity and freshness of the young 2012 version but the rising finish boasts glistening, sweet tannins and a sound structure for a graceful evolution in bottle.Inc.

Good medium red. Refined aromas of boysenberry, black cherry, minerals and violet. Subtle, suave and fine-grained, with dark berry and pungent mineral flavors coming across as utterly seamless yet vigorous. Not a fat wine but wonderfully perfumed, gripping and long. Like a mini-2010 in style, and built for a slow and graceful evolution in bottle.Inc. TAX€1,173.07 -

The 2016 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Cailles 1er Cru has a very classy and well defined bouquet with pure black cherries, raspberry and light mineral aromas that unfurl from the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with firm tannin, very focused with lovely grip and poised, slightly gritty in texture towards the finish but it boasts impressive length. Superb. Tasted blind at the 2016 Burgfest tasting.Inc. TAX€703.68 -
Decanter (95)
Les Cailles is one of the Chevillon brothers' best parcels, planted in the 1930s on a stony site next to Les St-Georges. It's an impressive red showing stony minerality, some vanilla spice and more underlying tannin than you think at first. The acidity drives the finish of the wine.Inc. TAX€233.48 -
Wine Advocate (93-95)
The 2018 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Cailles wafts from the glass with a lovely bouquet of cassis, plums, dark chocolate, grilled squab and smoked meats. Medium to full-bodied, elegantly layered and complete, it's muscular but refined, with a rich chassis of ripe tannin and an ample core of fruit, concluding with a long, perfumed finish.Inc.

The 2020 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Cailles 1er Cru offers more red fruit on the nose, again, just a little prune-like perhaps, a touch confit-like at the moment. The palate is medium-bodied with a patina of new oak on the entry, moderate depth, quite smooth with some wood tannins on the finish that will need 5-6 years to be fully subsumed. Give this time.Inc.

A beautiful mid purple colour with a very enhanced class to the fruit on the nose. This is very complete again with the more rigid structure, little waves of fruit keep pouring across the palate, almost daintily given the power. Drink from 2032-2038. Tasted Nov 2024.Inc. TAX€1,018.54 -

The 2011 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Chaignots 1er Cru has a detailed bouquet with perfumed red cherry, crushed strawberry and raspberry scents that are neatly integrated with the oak. It possesses the generosity and joie-de-vivre common amongst Chevillon’s wines. The palate is medium-bodied with plenty of red berry fruit, saline in the mouth with a pinch of spice, dovetailing into a more refined and nuanced finish that shows class and character. Very fine. Tasted at Flint Wines Burgundy 2011 tasting.Inc. TAX€1,465.32 -
Wine Advocate (90-92)
The 2014 Nuits St Georges 1er Cru les Chaignots comes from 1.55 hectares of 60-year-old vines. It has a well defined, slightly masculine bouquet that requires some encouragement. Darker fruit here than the Village Cru, yet still detailed. The palate is brisk and lively on the opening, quite citric in the mouth, darker fruit than say, Mugneret-Gibourg's own Les Chaignots -- but with a brightness and lucidity coming through on the playful finish. Very fine.Inc. TAX€742.07 -
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.

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.

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. TAX€650.14 -

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. TAX€1,527.58 -
(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. TAX€2,301.07 -
Vinous (92-94)
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. TAX€1,581.07 -
Wine 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. TAX€1,025.47 -
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. TAX€1,360.54 -
