Robert Chevillon Nuits-St-Georges Chaignots my 5th, groups 3rd with 46 points This seemed rather oaked to me with plenty of plump, chunky fruit but a bit too soft. It was a very middle of the road style and a surprising showing for one of my favorite producers. http://www.snooth.com/wine/robert-chevillon-nuits-st-georges-les-chaignots/ Comte Senard Corton en Charlemagne my 4th, groups 5th with 48 points Displaying an absolutely delicate color in the glass this was the only wine tonight that could be called ready. Very expressive with a layered, classic array of flavors, this kept evolving through the evening. http://www.snooth.com/wine/corton-en-charlemagne-comte-senard-2005/ Faiveley Gevrey Chambertin Craipillots my 6th, groups 8th with 66 points This struck me as the most closed wine of the night so I'm not surprised with it's showing. It did exhibit moments of fine Gevrey dirt and forest floor but it was tough to really get a handle on this. http://www.snooth.com/wine/domaine-faiveley-craipillot-gevrey-chambertin-1er-cru-2005/ Domaine de Lambrays Clos des Lambrays my 2nd, groups 1st with 37 points. This really had it all, depth, power, balance. It is very youthful still but it was universally admired. I loved the showy aromatics and great minerality that was a great contrast to the deep, sweet fruit. Excellent stuff! http://www.snooth.com/wine/clos-des-lambrays-domaine-des-lambrays-2005/ Robert Arnoux Nuits- St-Georges Poisets my 3rd, groups 2nd with 39 points This showed a very oaky character in a powerful style but still managed to be perfumed and had a lovely bitter/sweet contrast that helped to integrate the oak. Not exactly my style but undeniably very good. http://www.snooth.com/wine/domaine-robert-arnoux-nuits-st-georges-les-poisets/ Lamarche Clos Vougeots my 8th, groups 7th with 57 points This just smelled nasty to me for much of the night. Very intense Floral notes smelled like Pyrithium roach spray! I hated the nose but the palate didn't do much for me anyway. A mediocre bottle. http://www.snooth.com/wine/domaine-lamarche-clos-de-vougeot-grand-cru-2005/    (hide)

  Domaine Robert Chevillon Nuits St. Georges les Chaignots Premiere Cru 2005

  Snoothrank:

  Decidedly oaky at first with sweet backing spices and chocolate framing plump, chunky fruit and deep earth tones. Soft in the mouth with toughish tannins supporting excellent dark fruit notes though the bitter, drying tannins keep this a bit short and clumsy. Very middle of the road...
