The 2020 Robert Chevillon Nuits St Georges les St Georges, a Pinot Noir from Burgundy's Cote de Nuits, is a red wine of notable acclaim. This vintage has garnered high praise from several critics, with Jasper Morris awarding it an excellent 97 points. Morris describes the wine as having a "black purple" hue with a bouquet that's "very backward," yet revealing "concentrated deep raspberry fruit" that hints at its potential to develop into a "stunner."
Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate, through reviewer William Kelley, also rates the wine highly at 95 points. Kelley notes its aromas of "dark berries and plums mingled with warm spices, baking chocolate and loamy soil," further describing it as "medium to full-bodied, rich and layered." He commends its "lively acids and ample reserves of powdery tannin," suggesting a wine of both complexity and depth.
John Gilman from View From The Cellar echoes these sentiments, also giving it a 95-point score. Gilman highlights its "broad shoulders, firm tannins," and "great purity," with a "refined blend of black cherries, dark berries, and chocolate" on the nose. He concludes that this wine has a "rock solid core of pure fruit" and a "long, complex, tangy and chewy finish," indicating its potential for aging.
Vinous offers a somewhat more restrained score of 92 points, though Neal Martin still praises its "perfumed, floral bouquet" and "saturated tannins." He notes its "brightness and tension," describing it as a "successful Nuits Saint-Georges in a difficult vintage."
Overall, the 2020 Robert Chevillon Nuits St Georges les St Georges is a wine with robust structure, promising fruit, and significant aging potential, making it a noteworthy choice for enthusiasts of Burgundy Pinot Noir.
