Tasting Notes and Scores
The 2019 Gevrey-Chambertin Lavaux Saint-Jacques 1er Cru is reticent on the nose despite coaxing, but I feel it has just gone into its shell for a while. It still seems well-defined and pretty, as its red fruit mixes with briar and rose petal. All the constituent parts are here. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit. Showing fine weight and concentration, this is a "correct" Lavaux Saint-Jacques. There is a real precision and poise toward the finish, coupled with excellent sapidity. Give this time and you'll be rewarded. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.
