Domaine Robert Chevillon
We’ve worked with Chevillon for decades because the wines never miss. The 2023s are another reminder that no estate better represents the full breadth of Nuits-Saint-Georges. The domaine’s 13 hectares encompass the appellation’s breadth and greatness, producing premiers crus of both finesse, structure and well-reputed ageability. All fruit is destemmed, fermentations are closely managed, and élevage extends to 18 months with 30% new oak use. The northern crus, including Chaignots and Bousselots, are perfumed and more Vosne-like; the southern crus, offer more power and longevity. For customers, it’s a unique opportunity: grand cru quality from premiers crus pricing. Across the board, balance, terroir expression and cellaring potential are assured. Cheers, Randall

“yardstick for the appellation.”

‘The 2023 vintage has turned out nicely at this address, delivering wines somewhat reminiscent of a riper version of the 2017s, and with a suppleness..’

'…a bottomless core of sappy fruit, fine soil inflection and grip, ripe tannins and a long, classy, well balanced and chewy finish. Great juice.'
