Tasting Notes

Chevillon's 2012 Nuits-Saint-Georges Les Saint-Georges is magnificent, but it also is going to need quite a bit of time to fully come together. At times powerful and brooding, while at others much more restrained, the 2012 reveals a totally striking, multi-faceted personality. Layers of dark fruit, smoke, tar and spices take shape in the glass, but even with all of its intensity, the 2012 is never over the top. What a gorgeous wine this is. Antonio Galloni
