Robert Chevillon - Nuits St Georges - Les Chaignots - 1er Cru - 2011 - 750ml - Robert Chevillon

Very impressive nose, where an earthy, bracken depth of fruit displaying truffle and smoky qualities marries bold, dark cherry and blackberry fruit. A fine edge of sweetness on the palate has a slightly caramel quality, with a rounded, juicy plum and red cherry core. Supple, with a dry tannic background really filling in quite dense and full, and good acidity. A lovely, powerful but not inelegant style.
