The Chaignots is always the most accessible of the premier crus in the Chevillon cellars, but the 2014 shows a lovely sense of reserve out of the blocks that augurs very well for its potential longevity. The bouquet is very pure and elegant, offering up scents of black cherries, plums, raw cocoa, a beautiful base of soil tones, woodsmoke and vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and sappy at the core, with excellent transparency, fine-grained tannins and a long, tangy and beautifully balanced finish. A really lovely Chaignots in the making.
