Wine Advocate 90 points (Dec 2009)
A 2006 Nuits-St.-Georges Les Perrieres - as with other wines in this collection, very much following a site-typical pattern - offers both a brighter berry fruit (suggesting black raspberry and Maine blueberry) and a more overt sense of minerality (suggestions of chalk and crushed stone) than its predecessors in the present Chevillon line-up. The firmness of tannin here results in a faint hint of drying and abrasion in the finish, however, which I am inclined to suspect might be a temporary post-bottling (encompassing - at this address - post-filtration) phenomenon. This needs re-assessment in 2010 if one is to more securely prognosticate about its further bottle evolution, although as noted in introducing this collection, the track record chez Chevillon - very much including that of this wine - is formidable.
