93+ The 2012 Roncières chez Chevillon is another outstanding and utterly complete young bottle of Nuits St. Georges. The exceptional nose delivers a vibrant constellation of black cherries, plums, dark chocolate, a beautiful base of minerally soil tones, quail, a touch of fresh thyme and vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied, pure and simply rock solid at the core, with excellent focus and balance, suave, ripe tannins and stunning length and grip on the primary and very poised finish. Another stellar wine.

(BH90-92 points) Moderate reduction renders the nose difficult to assess. There is more size, weight and mid-palate concentration to the delicious medium weight flavors that are supported by phenolically mature tannins on the ripe, balanced and ever-so-mildly austere finish. This possesses fine development potential and will require at least 5 to 7 years before it will be approachable.
