2007 Domaine Robert Chevillon Nuits St. Georges 1er Cru Les Vaucrains 750ml

BH91-93 VM91-93

This is equally pure though less elegant and much more sauvage in character with much more deeply pitched earthy and gamy dark berry fruit aromas that precede the rich, sweet and vibrant flavors that culminate with good detail and a focused finish that exudes controlled power. This possesses excellent potential and this is a bit finer than it usually is with dense but fine tannins and a touch of backend wood. One rarely hears finesse and Vaucrains in the same sentence but this is one such exception. (Drink starting 2016)
