Community Tasting Notes (4) Avg Score: 90 points

  • Embryonic, or a bit closed if being less generous. Red fruited with a lot of structure, more towards to the dense, stolid end of burgundy but still fresh. Think this will improve quite a lot with 5+ years.

  • Burgundy expert Clive Coates MW writes that Domaine Jean Chauvenet “produces some of the most stylish, elegant wines in Nuits-Saint-Georges”, an opinion shared by many. Since 1994 the wines have been made by Jean’s son-in-law Christophe Drag, who brings an energy and modern approach to the winemaking, instilled during his years at the Beaune wine school. After a traditional fermentation, this old-vine cuvée was aged in oak barrels to achieve a delicious, smooth and fragrant character. 2019 has received high praise from the critics. James Suckling said, for Burgundy, this vintage has 'hit the bullseye'. It's drinking beautifully now but has the potential to age. Best decanted, then enjoy with pan fried duck, other light game or spiced pilaf.

  • FromAllots,Petites Charmottes and Aux Sts-Juliens all the north side of the town. Rich imperial purple, sensual and sensuous. A large-boned rugby playing Nuits-St-Georges, but bright and brisk red fruit with good acidities. 88-90 Pts, Jasper Morris. Drink by 2026
