The 2014 Gevrey Chambertin 1er Cru Lavaux St Jacques, which includes around 85% whole cluster fruit and is aged entirely in new wood, has a very floral violet-infused, cassis-scented bouquet. The palate is full-bodied with grainy, slightly furry tannin. There is a lot of weight in the mouth, although the acidity cuts through it, and the wine shows a touch of earthiness towards the finish. It will need several years in bottle.
High toned and aromatic. Lively and a little more austere then most of the wines from this stable. Dry end. Needs lots of time. Not rich but with masses built in here.?
