Note di degustazione
Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting in Beaune, the 2013 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Clos Saint-Jacques from Jean-Marie Fourrier has a generous nose of brambly red fruit, a touch of sage and broom, well defined and with plenty of fruit. The palate is medium-bodied with light tannins compared to Bruno Clair's own Clos Saint Jacques, but there is precision and character here, the terroir very expressive with superb mineralité towards the long and sustained finish, a ferrous note persistent on the aftertaste. This is a wine of tremendous transparency and it is totally engaging. Tasted September 2016.

On the nose, that immediate sense of layering and mystery that says ‘grand cru’, which of course Clos-Saint-Jacques is, in all but law. Backward and angular, but so much material here. (AH)
20% new oak. Vines planted 1900 and 1901. Notably deep crimson. Less obviously expressive than the Combe aux Moines. Very dense and mossy with many layers and rather a dry finish. Very sleek. Great sweetness on the front palate. Lots of introvert matter. Finish dry but great promise. So long. (JR)
