Tasting Notes

90-92
Vinous Antonio Galloni - 01 Apr 15
The 2013 Gevrey-Chambertin Lavaut St. Jacques is quite supple on the palate, yet it also offers lovely energy and verve. The flavors are nicely layered and perfumed throughout, with hints of hard candy, sweet herbs and leather that add nuance on the close.
