“Les Cailles” has a luminous and fairly sustained colour. From its youth, charm, freshness and fruitiness seduce us. A mixture of fresh fruit with a hint of vanilla, a touch of wild cherry, rosewood and old rose. These mingle with fine liquorice and spicy scents. Throughout the vintages, Les Cailles maintains a constant profile in which volume, airy fullness, silky texture dominate in the mouth, enhanced by freshness.

Producer Information

The Domaine was started by Symphonien Chevillon in the late 19th century with a small plot (3/4 acres) which he farmed after finishing his daily work for other vignerons. Symphonien’s son took over the Domaine upon his father’s death and began to acquire small parcels of Nuits St. Georges premier cru. The Domaine is now 31 acres and is managed by Robert Chevillon, great great nephew of Symphonien.
Domaine Chevillon is often said to be the greatest Domaine in Nuits Saint Georges. With a focused core of Pinot fruit, the wines are always balanced, never over-oaked or over-chapitalized. Chevillon’s Burgundies cellar well, but in their youth they show elegant berry and earth perfume, and are best paired with game dishes, roasted birds such as quail and duck, and strong aromatic cheeses.
