The Chauvenet-Chopin 2006 Nuits-St.-Georges Les Argillas (from a site high up into a Combe west of the town) smells smoky, resinous, faintly fusil, and citrus zesty, with overtones of kirsch distillate. To these almost Riesling-like notes are added on the palate brown spices and tart, sour cherry. An anchoring sense of meatiness and stony minerality gains prominence as one approaches a bright, lip-smacking finish. This is another lean bottling that shows its acidity, but in an invigorating way that's linked to a fascinatingly complex interplay of flavors. It will be most interesting to see how this evolves in bottle, but I am sure it will be worth following for at least 6-8 years. Hubert Chauvenet professed having been more active than normal in 2006 with punch-downs and pump-overs, in order to compensate for paucity of material, and a certain undertone of bitterness in a few of his lighter-weight 2006s may be explicable on that account.Imported by Robert Kacher Selections, Washington, DC; tel.
