Wow, this is an incredibly perfumed, sweet sandalwood-inflected, floral, ethereal, red-fruited (and dark cherry compote) fruited, Grand-Cru-like red. Randall
'..more fruit from the red side of the spectrum. On the palate though there is slightly more size and weight to the medium weight flavors with even more evident minerality adding a sense of lift to the balanced, long and more austere finale. This is firmer and more compact than the Les Cailles so at least some patience is advised.' 91-93 points, Outstanding - Allen Meadows, Burghound
'....lovely, mingling notes of cherries and cassis with hints of rose petal and vine smoke, followed by a medium to full-bodied, ample and enveloping palate that's seamless and lively, with good depth at the core and powdery structuring tannins.' 93-94 points - William Kelley, The Wine Advocate
'The 2023 Chevillon family’s example of les St. Georges is pure magic. The wine is stunningly pure, refined and nascently complex, wafting from the glass in an aromatic fireworks display of dark berries, red and black cherries, coffee bean, woodsmoke, gamebird, a complex base of dark soil tones, a touch of graphite, vanillin oak and a topnote of roses. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, very complex and beautifully sappy at the core, with great focus and balance, ripe tannins and a long, precise and utterly refined finish.' 95 points - John Gilman
'This has a more voluptuous layer of fruit to it. A liquid deep raspberry at the front of the palate, firmer tannins behind, fair concentration and length. A very seductive long aftertaste.' 93-96 points - Jasper Morris, Inside Burgundy
