From Becky Wasserman & Co. 

"Georges Noëllat was the nephew of Charles Noëllat, who was once the proprietor of one of Vosne’s greatest domaines.  As of 1990, Domaine Georges Noëllat sold its production to Jadot and Drouhin for 20 years. Enter 20-year-old Maxime Cheurlin in 2010, who consequently took over the management of the estate from his grandmother. Cheurlin grew up in Champagne, but it seems Burgundy wine is truly in his blood as he is a nephew of the Jayer family and a cousin of Emmanuel Rouget’s sons. Thus, he complemented his winemaking studies at the Lycée du Viticole in Beaune with stages at Domaine Emmanuel Rouget and Domaine Gros Frère et Soeur in 2009. The 5.5-hectare domaine includes some of the most profound terroirs of Vosne Romanée and northern Nuits St Georges."

Notes from Jasper Morris:

"Fuller crimson purple, with rather a deeper and livelier fruit, really interesting for Chaumes which can be pedestrian. Shows the oak a touch, excellent acidity red raspberry inside a blacker overcoat. Maxime has achieved what he wanted to do."
