2014 Nuits St Georges 1er Cru Les Saint Georges, Domaine Chevillon-Chezeaux (Stained Label)
Based in Nuits-Saint-Georges, this fifth-generation family domaine traces its roots to 1887. Run today by Claire Chevillon and Philippe Chezeaux, the estate comprises nearly 9 hectares, including an impressive range of Nuits Premier Cru sites. Philippe works in a traditional, low-intervention style: 100% destemmed fruit, cold maceration, and ageing in modest new oak (20–25%). The aim is wines with finesse, elegance and purity of fruit that reflect their terroir. The wines are classic Nuits-Saint-Georges: structured yet refined, with vibrant fruit and fine, balanced tannins.
"The wine comes from what many consider to be the Grand Cru of Nuits Saint-Georges. It is firm and structured with solid tannins over black-cherry fruits. There is a tight streak of acidity that cuts through the wine giving a crisp center to the fine fruit. Drink this wine from 2019." Wine Enthusiast
