Note di degustazione
The 2019 Gevrey-Chambertin Lavaux Saint-Jacques 1er Cru has plenty of fruit on the nose—raspberry, wild strawberry, rose petal and light sous-bois scents. Cohesive yet restrained, the aromatics will need bottle age to show their true potential. The palate is medium-bodied with filigree tannins. Showing citrus-fresh red fruit and wonderful balance, there is just a patina of wood that shaves some delineation and terroir expression away at the finish. Otherwise, this has a lot of potential, and it improves with aeration. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.

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.
