Earthy, spicy black fruit scents are found in the 2003 Gevrey-Chambertin Clos St.-Jacques. Highly structured and deep, this medium to full-bodied wine offers complex flavors of stony black fruits, fresh earth, blackberries, and dark cherries. Demanding patience, its tannic (yet ripe) character coats the palate, lingering for 45 seconds or more. Score: 92 Pierre Rovani, Wine Advocate, RobertParker.com Maturity: 2010-2020 01 August 2005 |

Interestingly, this is also quite ripe but not necessarily any more elegant though there is perhaps slightly better depth of material and certainly better overall purity of expression and intensity, especially on the superbly long, firm and punchy backend. While this is not classic in style, there is so much explosive energy and verve that this may very well surprise to the upside with time in bottle. Score: 90 - 92 Allen Meadows, Burghound Maturity: 2015+ 01 April 2005 |
