Note di degustazione
To distinguish his 2018 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Lavaux Saint-Jacques from its Domaine Denis Mortet counterpart, Arnaud Mortet opted to have his team cut out the central rachis, retaining intact berries and their pedicels, for over two-thirds of the crop. The result is a more perfumed, exotic cuvée, evocative of pennies, orange rind, cinnamon and rose petals as well as sweet wild berries and plums. Medium to full-bodied, charming and open, it's more supple and expressive than its stablemate.

Using 70% whole bunch to compare with the domaine example, the 2018 Gevrey-Chambertin Lavaux Saint-Jacques 1er Cru is defined by those stems on the nose. The palate is medium-bodied and comes across more peppery than the domaine version, quite defined but maybe without the sensuality of the domaine.
