From all my encounters with Les Saint Georges I would say that this 2010 from Chevillon is a defining wine. It has it all, an intriguing, typical forest moss nose and a full packed body with ripe cherry and touch of licorice in the long finish. Lovely wine. This been my first Les Saint Georges from vintage 2010 Chevillon opened and even as it was so delicious now, I still will keep my remaining bottles for at least 5 more years … or even 10 years. P 96

Vertical/Horizontal Tasting of Chevillon Nuits St. Georges Premier Crus (San Francisco): Ruby color. Baked fruit, spice, and some green. Light, saline, and earthy-definitely lighter than the Vaucrains and more soil. The fruit and citrus tones really come up with time in the glass, and the tannins are softer and more refined than the Vaucrains. Not yet mature but complete and complex. Great potential. As impressive as its stablemate was today, this might be the better, finer wine in the long run.

Even better than the 2009, still closed, so wait some more years, it will reward you. Burgundy is still a secret for me, you never know when to open a bottle. Luckily still some bottles left.

This bottle was quite closed and tight despite decanting at dinner. I should have opened it at least 5 or more hours. It started to open a little towards the end of dinner but it was a huge difference from the last bottle I drank.
