Domaine Robert Chevillon Domaine Chevillon Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Pruliers 2019 750ml

Unwinding in the glass with notes of blackberries, cassis, dark chocolate and spices, the 2019 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Pruliers is medium to full-bodied, rich and textural, its muscular chassis of tannin cloaked in an enveloping core of fruit, concluding with a mineral finish. This is quite a velvety, charming rendition of Chevillon’s Pruliers. (William Kelley)

The 2019 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Pruliers 1er Cru has more freshness and delineation on the nose compared to the Les Perrières, and a little more focus, offering mineral-rich red berry fruit. The palate is very well balanced with nicely integrated oak. The terroir expression is more articulated here compared to some of Chevillon’s other Premier Crus and there is plenty of tension on the sorbet-fresh finish. Excellent.
