Mid crimson. The tannins here are finer than on the Gevrey Mes Cinq Terroirs, more chalky. Overall fresher and more red-fruited. Plenty of fruit pleasure and enough freshness but not particularly charming. Good length. (JH)

The 2018 Gevrey-Chambertin Lavaux Saint-Jacques 1er Cru is completely de-stemmed and raised in 70% new oak. It has a very well-defined bouquet of raspberry and wild strawberry scents, plus pressed rose petal and a touch of orange pith. The palate is very well defined with supple tannins, a perfect line of acidity and a slight confit-like finish. Understated and refined, this will give two decades of drinking pleasure.
The 2018 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Lavaux Saint-Jacques is elegant and perfumed this year, bursting with aromas of peonies, orange rind, wild berries and cassis. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied and fine-boned, less lavishly textural and more introverted than the Champeaux this year, structured around supple, powdery tannins and succulent acids.
Cask sample. Rich and sweet though arguably without the energy of the premier cru blend. Save your money! (JR)
