A super-fresh and markedly sauvage-inflected nose offers very cool array of red and dark berries where hints of herbal tea, forest floor and game add breadth. The rich and relatively full-bodied flavors possess excellent complexity as well as focused power on the compact and youthfully austere yet impressive persistent finale. This mineral-driven effort is a classic LSJ.

Varietal

Pinot Noir

Regularly described as being the grape varietal responsible for producing the world's most romantic wines, Pinot Noir has long been associated with elegance and a broad range of flavors The name means 'black pine' in French, and this is due to the fact that the fruit of this particular varietal is especially dark in color, and hangs in a conical shape, like that of a pine cone. Despite being grown today in almost every wine producing country, Pinot Noir is a notoriously difficult grape variety to cultivate. This is because it is especially susceptible to various forms of mold and mildew, and thrives best in steady, cooler climates. However, the quality of the fruit has ensured that wineries and vintners have persevered with the varietal, and new technologies and methods have overcome many of the problems it presents. Alongside this, the wide popularity and enthusiasm for this grape has ensured it will remain a firm favorite amongst wine drinkers for many years to come.

The 2017 Gevrey-Chambertin Lavaux Saint-Jacques 1er Cru has a fragrant bouquet of pressed irises accompanying black cherry and bilberry fruit, plus a little stoniness tucked underneath. The balanced palate offers well-judged acidity and sappy black fruit tinged with citrus and orange peel, and good grip toward the finish. This is a commendable Lavaux, even if it is not top of the class.

Winery Notes

Richly aromatic and powerful with a nose of bright purple fruit, mulberry and spice. The palate is dark-fruited with impressive lift and minerality, supported by delicate and supple tannins.
