"The 2007 Chevillon Les St. Georges is a superb bottle in the making, with its customary depth and nascent complexity wrapped in a more gentle structure that will make it accessible after five or six years of bottle age- certainly precocious by the long-lived standards of this fine wine. The wine offers up a simply outstanding nose of red and black cherries, dark berries, a hint of graphite, coffee, violets, gamebirds and a profound base of soil tones. On the palate the wine is medium-full, deep, pure and laser-like in its focus, with a great core of fruit, modest tannins, juicy acidity and superb length and grip on the already quite complex finish. A superb bottle in the making."
