Tasting Notes

The 2014 Gevrey Chambertin 1er Cru Clos Saint Jacques came in with hardly any sorting required because the grapes were so healthy according to Sylvie Esmonin. The vintage includes 50% whole bunch fruit and is matured in 75% new oak. It has a charming blackcurrant, boysenberry and mineral-tinged bouquet that is extremely well defined -- superb mineralité here. The palate is very well balanced with good density, but it is the freshness and tension that drive this on, a tinge of black pepper lending complexity to the energetic finish. The oak is nicely integrated and allows the terroir to shine through. Très bon.

Score: 91 - 93
