  light aromas rhubarb and pinot funk, flavors of red fruit, nice minerality, a bit of chewing tobacco, (more levi garrett than redman, if you know, you know) good finish. opened and stood up 1:20 in cellar, consumed over several hours. 88

  I gave this the worst possible opportunity- too cold, no real chance to open up, etc. But this showed nicely- in particular, the structure was a real surprise for this vintage and level. Some signs of Nuits like complexity in iron to add to the fruit, but still not terribly expressive / complex. Chevillon has to make the most consistently excellent Bourgogne rouge I've know.

  just when I was ready to swear off Bourgogne as overpriced, I open this very nice bottle that reminds me that there is, indeed, a big difference between Bourgogne and Loire PN, and it can be worth the difference in price. A solid, responsible wine, as the Chevillon brothers are wont to produce.

  Satisfies the burgundy craving I often get, but nothing special. Moderate nose of cherries and some faint spice and earth, palate is fairly light, elegant, cherries and spice and acid. Pretty typical for burgundy, very good for a bourgogne, pretty good qpr at $25.

  A very good Bourgogne that has nice Pinot fruit and some earthy notes. Elegant texture and good balance. A simple, but nice drinking wine.
