It's hard not to be excited. I never get to offer Chevillon's Les St-Georges, especially back-vintages.
If Nuits-St-Georges had a Grand Cru, it would be Les St-Georges. It's the most complete, complex, and aristocratic of the Nuits 1er Crus.
Chevillon is the king of Nuits-St-Georges. His parcel is only 0.6ha. You get the picture.
We love Chevillon's 2008s, and of course, the Les St-Georges leads the pack. Across the range, they are beautifully clear, and for all of their muscle, they are poised and lifted.
The 2008 Les St-Georges is brilliantly focused, with thundering length and complexity. There's nearly overwhelming intensity with pitch-perfect clarity. Les St-Georges ages amazingly well, and this wine's formidable structure is just beginning to open up.Â
I wish that I had more to offer. I've had so many absolutely stunning bottles of old Les St-Georges that it's become an essential part of my cellar. Please give us your ideal order, and we'll try our best.
