Tasting Notes

Vinous Neal Martin - 08 Oct 25
The 2021 Gevrey-Chambertin Clos Saint-Jacques 1er Cru has the most fruit-forward bouquet with gushing redcurrant, raspberry and wild strawberry scents that demand attention. Then there are scents of lavender and rosemary. The palate is medium-bodied with svelte tannins and well-judged acidity, the lushest of the Clos Saint-Jacques yet with wonderful purity and structure. Utterly seductive, and it has the substance to age well in bottle. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.

Robert Parker Wine Advocate William Kelley - 31 Jan 23
The 2021 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Clos Saint-Jacques delivers aromas of cassis, sweet berries, spices and soil, framed by a creamy patina of new oak. Medium to full-bodied, supple and concentrated, it's layered and seamless, with a fleshy, sensual profile and an expansive finish.

Jancis Robinson Matthew Hayes - 21 Oct 22
Cask sample. Mid-dark cherry. Dense, perfumed and concentrated nose. There seems a whiff of balsam, spicy raisin-and-sultana sweetness on the nose. Is that cola? It is certainly exotic and spicy. Fine, lacy acidity. Medium-bodied with a rich texture, this is refined with silky soft tannins. All very modest and balanced. Fine, complex and long. (MH)
