Note di degustazione
The 2021 Gevrey-Chambertin Lavaux Saint-Jacques 1er Cru has slightly darker blacker fruit on the nose, more sultry and backward with a patina of oak to be subsumed. That said, there is sufficient fruit here. The palate is medium-bodied with powdery tannins. Dark plum and raspberry fruit, graphite and a touch of seaweed make it feel very sapid, almost briny towards the finish, and that gets the saliva flowing. It is an uncompromising Gevrey that does not care about pleasing the masses. But I find this absolutely absorbing and am fascinated to see how it will mature in bottle. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.

A more restrained and distinctly cool nose is at once quite elegant and spicy while displaying an array of both red and dark currant, earth and violet. The dense, muscular and powerful big-bodied flavors flash plenty of minerality on the wonderfully persistent, compact, austere and serious finale. This is a classic and very tightly wound LSJ that is likely to remain that way for most of the next decade.
The 2021 Gevrey-Chambertin Lavaux Saint-Jacques 1er Cru contains 30-40% whole bunches (pédicelles) . Red berry fruit on the nose mixes with shucked oyster shell and estuarine aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins, a mixture of red and black fruit, fresh with crushed stone towards the terse finish. A bit uncompromising but somehow absorbing.
