As the scores and tasting notes attest, Chevillon was successful. I am delighted that in 1991 all filtration was halted, something that can only be considered a positive development. All of these offerings are well-colored and tannic. There may be a slight gamble with a handful of these selections, but in most cases I feel Chevillon's 1991s possess the requisite depth of fruit to balance out the tannin. The best Chevillon's 1991 offerings include the Nuits St.-Georges-Les Vaucrains (from 75-year old vines), Nuits St.-Georges-Les Cailles (the most underrated premier cru vineyard in the appellation), and Nuits St.-Georges-Les St.-Georges (the strongest candidate for elevation to grand cru status). The richest, fullest, deepest, most concentrated 1991 is the Nuits St.-Georges-Les St.-Georges. It exhibits moderate tannin, but the overall impression is one of excellent depth, ripeness, admirable purity, and a medium to full-bodied feel in the mouth. Cellar it for 3-4 years and enjoy it for 15 or more. Importer: Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant, Berkeley, CA.
