Description

Rare opportunity to buy fully mature examples of this benchmark Nuits St Georges from the commune's leading vineyard, widely considered worthy of Grand Cru status and produced by one of its leading producers.

Here is what the professionals have to say:

Burghound (92 points):

Wonderfully ripe, complex and nuanced fruit that remains almost entirely primary in character followed by intense, pure, racy, elegant flavors underpinned by round, completely ripe tannins. This is a wine of evident class and grace yet there is excellent concentration and real depth of extract here. A flat out terrific effort that will age for years.| (drink starting 2005) 92 points (October 2001)

View From the Cellar (95+ points):

The 1993 Chevillon Les St. Georges is as fine a bottle of young Nuits as I have ever had the pleasure to taste, as it again seems to take the best of both the Cailles and Vaucrains and roll them into a whole that is more than a sum of its parts. The nose is deep, refined and regal, soaring from the glass in a mélange of black cherries, plums, violets, nutty tones, herbs, intense minerality, and woodsmoke. On the palate the wine is full-bodied, complete and youthfully complex, with a sappy core of fruit, brilliant acidity, great focus, and a very, very long finish of modest tannins and soil-driven flavors. This is a remarkable young wine that towers above many examples of the vintage that wear the grand cru label. 2008-2035. 95+. (January 2006)

Further background information on Chevillon's Les St Georges (from John Gilman's "View From the Cellar"):

I never really had an appreciation for how spectacular Les St. Georges could be, or how much it towers over all the other premier crus in Nuits St. Georges until I had the opportunity to taste a series of vintages of Chevillon’s version, right alongside his Cailles and Vaucrains. In this context, there is no doubt that Les St. Georges is of grand cru quality (particularly in the skilled hands of Messieurs Chevillon), as there is a depth, breed and extra dimension to Les St. Georges that is simply not replicated in any other vineyard in the commune. When young, the wine is nearly as impenetrable as Vaucrains, though while hermetically sealed, it is also clearly not as wild. Aromatically notes of dark berries and black cherries, as well as bitter chocolate, game, violets and a myriad of soil tones are apparent in young Les St. Georges. The wine is almost always very closed in its youth, and even in a relatively forward vintage like 2000, the Chevillons’ Les St. Georges demands bottle age. However, with fifteen to twenty years time, a top vintage is a magnificent bottle of Burgundy, with an elegance and aristocratic mélange of flavors and aromatics that are clearly of grand cru quality.
