A delightful CDP! Full-bodied but not overpowering. Smokey and tangy with a lot of floral notes. Raspberries, kirsch, blackberries, with a satisfying finish. Drinking exceptionally well now. — 3 months ago

What a banger. Elegant nose, smoky. The most notable thing was the tension brought by the tannins. Just perfect. Lip smacking. Great wine for bbq. — 3 months ago

2013 | Pinot Noir
Domaine Robert Chevillon; Village Vieilles Vignes
Burgundy; Côte de Nuits, Nuits-Saint-Georges, France
(91-93; drink 2028-38)

Lots of powerful cherry and stem-like notes from a standard vintage, not a glass I'd pass over.

Paired to duck confit (D'Artagnan) over green/red lentils with a hit of Dijon mustard to get the acid balance to perfection. — 4 months ago

There are few pairings better than Duck Confit & red burgundy.

Surprisingly so youthful so as to wonder whether this will last more than 50 years (it’s 25 years old now and barely evolved), absolutely lovely!! — 7 days ago

@Ira Schwartz, they are still producing, but I have learned from the importer that this vintage was apparently their pinnacle, a unicorn I suppose, I have myself tried a few other vintages and they’re not anywhere near this level (sadly).

@Doug Powers I very much appreciate the details , thank you

This is amazing. I’m cellaring three Pays Nantais Muscadets right now but never imagined the grape could run this long.

9.1

Quite deep ruby garnet. Takes a bit of time to get going on the nose , then cassis , black plum , dark cherry , a slightly herbal, earthy, black pepper notes . On the palate quite round , with more dark fruits , earthy sous bois , and a spicy herbal touch , menthol finish . Nice balanced acidity and with rounded , ripe tannins with ok length . Drinking perfectly now and will drink well for another 5-8 years — 3 months ago
