Domaine Robert Chevillon Les Cailles, Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Cru, France 2021
Les Cailles 2021 is one of the domaine's most prestigious and sought-after Nuits-Saint-Georges Premier Crus, sourced from the revered Les Cailles climat in the southern part of the appellation. The wine combines the power and depth of Nuits-Saint-Georges with remarkable finesse, offering layers of red and black cherry, raspberry, violet, savory earth, spice, and subtle mineral notes. The 2021 vintage brings vibrant acidity and beautiful freshness, while refined tannins provide structure and significant aging potential. A benchmark Burgundy for its balance of elegance, complexity, and site expression, and arguably one of the finest bottles in the Chevillon lineup.
"The 2021 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Cailles wafts from the glass with aromas of sweet red berries and plums mingled with rose petals, spices and orange zest. Medium to full-bodied, seamless and elegant, it's an ample, suave, sensual wine with lively acids and beautifully refined tannins." Wine Advocate 92-94
