The Les Vaucrains climat is known for producing wines with impressive depth, power, and cellaring potential, while the 2020 vintage adds energy, concentration, and freshness. It comes from one of the commune’s most respected names, in a site long prized for its serious, ageworthy character.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, expect a deep ruby color with a youthful, vibrant core. The bouquet typically unfolds with red and dark berries, violet, subtle spice, earth, and a touch of oak refinement, while the palate is shaped by firm yet polished tannins, lively acidity, and a mineral backbone. This is a wine that balances density with elegance, and it should develop beautifully over the next 8–15 years, gaining complexity and a more silky texture with time.

Production
Produced in the Côte de Nuits village of Nuits-Saint-Georges, Les Vaucrains is one of the appellation’s premier cru sites, valued for its cooler exposure and limestone-rich soils that bring structure and aromatic precision. Domaine Chevillon Robert works with Pinot Noir from carefully tended vineyard parcels, with harvesting typically carried out by hand to preserve fruit integrity. Vinification is traditionally Burgundian, aiming to highlight site expression, with élevage in oak barrels helping to shape texture and depth without overwhelming the wine’s finesse.

Food & Serving
This is an excellent match for roasted duck, game birds, veal, beef tenderloin, mushrooms, and dishes with rich, savory sauces. It is best served at around 16–18°C and can benefit from 1–2 hours in a decanter when young to help the aromas open up and soften the tannins.

Producer
Domaine Chevillon Robert is a highly regarded family estate in Nuits-Saint-Georges, known for producing classic, terroir-expressive wines that capture the character of the Côte de Nuits. The domaine has built a strong reputation for consistency, balance, and ageworthy structure, particularly from its premier cru holdings. Its wines are often sought after by Burgundy enthusiasts for their authenticity and their ability to develop beautifully in the cellar.
