Domaine Robert Chevillon Description
Nuits-Saint-Georges does not officially have any grand cru vineyards, but we are convinced that Cailles, Vaucrains and Les Saint-Georges are firmly grand cru quality. This decision is currently in the hands of the appellation authorities but it is almost better if the status quo doesn’t change–that way we are assured to get grand cru quality at a premier cru price!
Before the land was cultivated with vines, it was full of brambles or ronces.
Wine Advocate: 91-93 Points
Bursting with aromas of blackberries, mulberries, dark chocolate and rich soil tones, the 2019 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Roncières is medium to full-bodied, fleshy and layered, built around velvety tannins and succulent acids. It will be well worth seeking out.
Burghound: 91-94 Points
A cooler and equally reserved nose features shy notes of various red berries that are cut with hints of wild black currant, spice and violet whiffs. There is excellent energy and a relatively sophisticated texture to the medium-bodied flavors that flash a taut muscularity on the dusty, serious and youthfully austere finish that displays terrific depth and persistence. Excellent and very promising.
