Tasting notes
Aromas of plums, wild berries, smoked meats and violets introduce the Chevillon brothers' 2018 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Pruliers, a medium to full-bodied, succulent and enveloping wine with an ample core of fruit that cloaks ripe but chalky structuring tannins that only assert themselves on the finish. This is a very serious cuvée that's built for the cellar.

The 2018 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Pruliers 1er Cru has a very perfumed and floral bouquet with wilted rose petal and touches of lavender infusing the mainly red berry fruit. I appreciate the detail and delineation of this N.S.G. The palate is very fine and matched with a superb line of acidity, the lively red fruit laced with subtle hickory and white pepper notes, fanning out nicely toward the finish while maintaining superb freshness. This is perhaps the most immediately enjoyable of Chevillon’s 2018s.
