Professional reviews

Cask sample. Dark-to-mid ruby. Lovely perfume: dried flowers, floral notes, with raspberry and cassis. Elegance. Fine, crisp acidity, inviting and provocative, leading on through silky, silky tannins and a warm crescendo finish.

The 2022 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Clos Saint-Jacques has turned out nicely, offering up rich aromas of smoky berries, plums, cedar spice box, orange zest and grilled squab, followed by a medium to full-bodied, satiny and supple palate that's layered and seamless. Out of barrel, Clos Saint-Jacques can be one of the domaine's more muscular wines, but this year's rendition is very charming.

An even crimson colour. The bouquet suggests a classical Clos St-Jacques despite the storm. Superb concentrated fruit on the palate, with the faintest sign of a drier patch at the finish, but the fruit should continue to develop very well to cover it
