2020 Domaine Chevillon-Chezeaux Vosne-Romanee Village
France / Burgundy / Cote de Nuits / Vosne-Romanee Village Rouge
Domaine Chevillon-Chezeaux Vosne-Romanée Village (Lieux dits: La Croix Blanche).
Vosne-Romanée is a hallowed commune in Burgundy's Côte de Nuits, combining a number of famous and much-prized Grand and 1er Cru vineyards with a raft of stellar names and a captivating history.
Classic Vosne-Romanée wine is considered by many to have the perfect balance of weight, structure, elegance, and longevity.
Tasting notes often refer to a combination of tart red fruits (particularly cherries and raspberries) and darker elements of undergrowth, licorice and smoke.
The village has been a known source of quality wines for more than a thousand years, since the arrival of the monks of the Saint-Vivant monastery. Today, it makes wine almost exclusively from Pinot Noir, although up to 15% of the local white varieties are permitted, to allow for natural planting variations and mutations (Pinot Noir is notoriously genetically unstable).
Domaine Chevillon-Chezeaux was formerly known as Domaine Georges et Michel Chevillon.
