PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

"From a 0.47ha parcel in a terroir which is cooler than Clos-St-Jacques, the destemmed fruit was aged in used casks, giving a vibrant wine, with an expressive, perfumed red fruit nose and a fresh, lively texture that cloaks a wine of true concentration and length. Perfect for mid-term ageing." Decanter 94 Points

"Moderate reduction dominates the underlying fruit today. Otherwise there is very good volume and intensity to the tautly muscular and serious medium-bodied flavors that brim with minerality while exhibiting excellent depth and persistence on the well-balanced and mildly austere finale. This is firm but not as firm as it usually is though with that said, it will still need 10 to 12 years of cellaring. *Burghound Outstanding!" Burghound 90 - 93 Points

"The 2019 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Lavaux Saint-Jacques is promising, mingling aromas of cassis and smoky berries with hints of loamy oil, raw cocoa and potpourri. Medium-bodied, bright and lively, with a succulent core of fruit framed by ultra-refined tannins, it concludes with a long, perfumed finish. This is the highest-alcohol wine in the cellar in 2019, but that certainly didn't stand out in the glass." Robert Parker 91 - 93 Points
