Nuits St Georges Les Cailles, Domaine Robert Chevillon 2016

Tasting Notes

**Note: from a 1.12 ha parcel of 75+ year old vines**
A strikingly pretty, even perfumed, nose is comprised by aromas of spiced plum, dark currant, tea and a discreet but not invisible application of wood. There is both more refinement and minerality present on the caressing yet quite powerful medium-bodied flavors that also culminate in an equally firm and lingering finish. This too is built-to-age but in contrast to the Pruliers, the natural refinement of a classic Les Cailles will permit it to be approached after 6 to 8 years.
