Chevillon Nuits-St-Georges 1er cru Les Cailles 2022

95+ points La Revue du Vin de France: "Les Cailles is smoky and juicy, with dazzling fruit nestled in flesh that's full-bodied, intense and penetrating, all finesse and harmony: a brilliant wine. (2025)"

93-95 points Neal Martin (Vinous): "The 2022 Nuits Saint-Georges Les Cailles 1er Cru has a bold and forthright bouquet with black cherries, black plum, crushed violet and just a touch of fig. The palate is medium-bodied with succulent ripe tannins and gentle grip. It is fresher on the finish than the Les Pruliers, with fine tension and length. This is very promising - the terroir shows through beautifully. Drink: 2027-2050. (Jan 2024)"

92-95 points/'Sweet spot/Outstanding,' Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(from a 1.12 ha parcel of 75+ year old vines). An ultra-fresh nose exhibits an airy array of essence of red cherry, cranberry and lavender that is trimmed in noticeable but not intrusive wood. The cool, pure and equally fresh medium weight flavors possess terrific vibrancy along with first-rate delineation on the refined, focused and youthfully austere finish that delivers sneaky good length. The innate class of a fine Cailles is clearly present and I very much like the overall sense of harmony. If you can find it, buy it. Drink: 2034+. (Jan 2024)"

92-94 points William Kelley (Wine Advocate): "The 2022 Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Cailles is serious and concentrated, unfurling in the glass with aromas of raspberries and plums mingled with orange zest, peonies and sweet spices. Medium to full-bodied, supple and seamless, with a deep and layered core of fruit, refined tannins and a resonant finish, it's a terrific wine in the making. (1/18/24)"
