My last bottle, all bought on release, and one that demonstrates that I drank the others too soon. The wine has slightly garrigue-touched strawberry fruit with a silky texture and overall quite a bit of finesse and purity. Tasted blind, I doubt that I would have guessed Nuits -- perhaps Morey, instead. All in all, a lovely bottle, but somewhat to my surprise, I wouldn't tarry too long with drinking remaining stocks up.

Consistent with earlier notes. Not particular elegant but very NSG being a bit rustic. Still well balanced and drinking very good now and possibly at its peak.

Chevillon Roncières vertical at The Bristol (Chicago, IL): A poster child for why wine should be bottled with screw caps. Corked.

This drinks really good now. Earthy with licorice and dark berries. Not particular complex but very good balance.
