Tasted blind at the Burgundy 2011 horizontal tasting in Beaune. The Gevrey-Chambertin Clos St Jacques 2011 has plenty of fruit concentration on the nose with raspberry, fresh strawberry, sous-bois and woodland scents springing forth. The palate is medium-bodied with fleshy ripe tannins that lend its silky texture; good depth of fruit although missing a little delineation on the finish. Still, this has good potential and fine salinity on the finish. This is the most sensual of the Clos Saint Jacques 2011s.
