2012 - Rich aromas of spice, chocolate and dark fruits. The palate is rich, full bodied with fine silky tannins expressing sweet spices, plums and blackberries leading to a long dry finish. This is a big yet elegant wine. — 8 years ago

2012 vintage: Quite a feminine NSG that is really floral of rich fruit and gaminess. The palate has good length with good fruit but lovely fine tannins that leave you wanting more. Very different to Chevillon's other NSG wines. A lovely NSG worth a go. — 10 years ago

What a great wine to finish the night. Coconut, cinnamon, maple syrup on the palate. Dense, rich and really interesting. I can see why Robert Parker gave this 100 points. If you ever get the chance...enjoy! — 10 years ago

11 vintage: This has a subtle nose of raspberry, earth and marzipan with a palate of raspberry, cherry pith and spice. It has a medium body that is quite persistent but needs time to open up. This could also handle a few more years in the cellar. A very good villages. AG — 10 years ago

1995 - lovely and fresh with good tannin and acid structure, especially for a 22 year old wine. Could have done with another 10+ years. Black current, tobacco and leather on the very perfumed nose. Lovely and silky on the palate with dry but almost sweet tannins that finished minerally with a good medium length. Quite enjoyable now but imagine much better in time. — 8 years ago

This is the 'Cuvée du Roi' 2012 and is clearly a Bourgogne from the Cotes-du-Nuits. This is rich and silky with great depth and structure that has some lovely acidity and fine tannins that drinks well above its level. Could easily be a good C-D-N villages. — 10 years ago

2010 vintage. A golden colour with a wonderfully rich nose of honey, pear, almond and lemon. The palate has lovely minerality and the acidity really keeps this wine fresh. A lovely long finish that leaves you wanting more. AG — 10 years ago

2001 vintage. This is a big masculine wine with a nose of strawberry, spice and gaminess. The palate is silky with strawberry, cherry and spice. Really good length and surprisingly Burgundian in style very much in the Pommard style. The acid structure at 16 years is great and keeps the wine fresh. The tannins are velvety and this is quite an enticing wine. If you ever get the chance worth a try. Probably could have waited a few more years but lovely none the less. — 8 years ago

1992 Vintage. I was pleasantly surprised as I didn't really know if this had travelled as it did over the years. Tasted very young. Everyone picked it younger than 2008. How wrong and how good. AG — 10 years ago

2009 vintage: Lovely 100% semillon sticky. Nose of apricot, peach, rose petal and warm sweet liquorice. The palate is velvety and deep with apricot, liquorice and white flower. The acidity keeps this wine very fresh and enjoyable. AG — 10 years ago
