Note di degustazione
Many years ago I bought two or three bottles of the 1985 Gevrey-Chambertin Clos Saint-Jacques 1er Cru for a price that now begs belief. All of them were poured for two people: my wife and I. This last bottle is sublime. That same old spellbinding nose that envelops the senses, quite lush in keeping with the vintages, beautifully defined with traces of hung game creeping in. There is great tannic structure here, again, just a little gaminess towards the finish, but so elegant and refined that you instantly fall for its charms. Tasted at home in Guildford.

The Clos St.-Jacques, made from 61-year-old vines, has oodles of black cherry fruit, a deep color, and layer upon layer of extract. It needs until 1990-1991 to develop fully, but will keep for 10 to 15 years.
