The 2016 Gevrey-Chambertin Clos Saint-Jacques 1er Cru is blessed with a bouquet of real pedigree: very complex mixture of red and black brambly fruit, sous-bois, crushed stone and rose petal aromas. The harmony and delineation is outstanding. The palate is medium-bodied with supple, pliant tannins that lend this Clos Saint-Jacques symmetry and poise. Fresh and vibrant, it never relinquishes any of its breeding and tension. The finish is persistent and utterly captivating. Fabulous. Tasted blind at the 2016 Burgfest tasting.Inc. TAX€9,931.68 -

The 2017 Gevrey-Chambertin Clos Saint-Jacques 1er Cru has a very perfumed bouquet, beautifully defined with fragrant raspberry preserve, wild strawberry, rose petal and crushed granite aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with velvety tannin. It is not a powerful Clos Saint-Jacques nor the most complex, yet it is utterly harmonious and so silky smooth on the finish that you will find this nigh irresistible. Sensual and gunning for top position amongst the five Clos Saint-Jacques growers in this vintage.Inc. TAX€1,188.68 -

The 2019 Gevrey-Chambertin Clos Saint-Jacques 1er Cru has a rich bouquet with plenty of fruit and perhaps the greatest presence of the five CSJ, although Fourrier's has greater delineation and precision. The oak is more noticeable, although it is still proportionate to the fruit. The palate is very well balanced, with fine depth and precision. Harmonious and palpably energetic on the finish, this is from the top-drawer, and it will continue to age for many years. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.Inc. TAX€2,170.60 -

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (93-96)
Fine mid purple colour. Already the oak (80% new wood) adds an extra level of intensity but clearly there is a wealth of fruit too. A burst of divine sweet fruit greets the back of the palate, long and lovely. Drink from 2028-2036.Inc. TAX€1,414.44 -

The 2010 Gevrey-Chambertin Lavaux St. Jacques wafts from the glass with crushed flowers, spices and expressive small red fruit.

Moderately saturated bright medium red. Slightly reduced nose suggests black and red cherry, game and a hint of leather. Then supple and seamless in the mouth, with cherry and raspberry fruit flavors dominating. Finishes dense and long, with suave tannins and lingering sweetness.Inc. TAX€977.95 -
Wine Advocate (90)
Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2014 tasting, the 2014 Gevrey Chambertin 1er Cru Lavaux St Jacques has a comparatively showy and exotic bouquet, perhaps with a longer skin maceration than its peers, replete with saturated red cherry fruit and kirsch. A bit of a show-off (which is something I would not normally ascribe to Rousseau—these words written prior to knowing its identity). The palate is medium-bodied with sappy black fruit, a gentle grip in the mouth and a smooth texture. For me, it just lacks some personality and is steered more by the winemaking ideology than the terroir, a little generic compared to others in the flight. This is a capable wine but I would have wanted more. Tasted September 2017.Inc. TAX€630.49 -

Not that much nose. Smells transparent somehow! Racy and lively – very lifted. Cool and fresh. Undramatic but rewarding with a peacock’s tail that’s very satisfying on the end. It’s all on the end!Inc. TAX€798.68 -

The 2019 Gevrey-Chambertin Lavaux Saint-Jacques 1er Cru has wonderful transparency on the nose of red currant and wild strawberry, plus glimpses of orange blossom and rose petal. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit, lightly spiced and quite peppery in the mouth. Fine grip and length. This is a lovely Lavaux that will be difficult to resist in its youth.Inc.

The 2020 Gevrey-Chambertin Lavaux Saint-Jacques 1er Cru has a mineral-driven bouquet with dark berry fruit, sous-bois and just a touch of dessicated orange peel. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins and fine acidity. Is it the most complex Lavaux? Maybe not, though it has an attractive juiciness mixed with sapidity that keeps you coming back for more.Inc. TAX€1,012.75 -
Vinous - Neal Martin (93)
The 2021 Gevrey-Chambertin Lavaux Saint-Jacques 1er Cru has another impressive bouquet from this flight with bolder yet delineated and vivacious red fruit that leaps from the glass. Real energy and focus here. The palate is medium-bodied with fleshy ripe pliant tannins that frame the mineral-driven red fruit. Plenty of vigour and tension throughout this Gevrey-Chambertin; it feels detailed and sapid on the finish, urging you back for more. I was lukewarm about this from barrel and, as I suspected and wrote back then, it has gained weight and warrants a higher score. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.Inc. TAX€771.55 -
(1x75cl) 2006Vinous (87-89)
(these vines average more than 50 years of age) Pale, bright red. Aromatic nose combines red cherry, rose petal and mint. Supple and pretty, with lovely purity and moderate density to the red fruit and floral flavors. Offers nice balance and a light touch. Finishes with firm tannins and lingering perfume.Inc. TAX€1,065.55 -
(1x75cl) 2007Vinous (87-89)
Good bright medium red. Reduced aromas of red fruits and flowers. Silky on entry, then tight in the middle palate, with a medicinal austerity and underlying stoniness giving the wine a firm edge. The red cherry flavor is complicated by a whiff of game. Usually it's the Lavaux that's more minerally and hard, notes Eric Rousseau, who points out that this cuvee features the highest average vine age of the domain.Inc. TAX€1,065.55 -
(1x75cl) 2008Vinous (87-89)
Bright medium red. Wilder, slightly reduced aromas of strawberry, raspberry and game. Silky in texture, at once broader and less delineated than the Lavaux. A distinctly more sauvage wine with more volume and tannic presence. This is from old vines, notes Eric Rousseau, adding that the Lavaux includes some young vines that give that wine more sucrosite and elegance.Inc. TAX€1,065.55 -

Vinous (88-90)
Good deep red with ruby highlights. Dark raspberry and licorice on the nose, complicated by musky herbs, menthol, leather and game. Then less sweet and more medicinal in the mouth than the Lavaux, displaying distinctly darker flavors. In a more masculine style, finishing with tougher tannins. The vines here average 55 years of age, making them the oldest of the estate.Inc. TAX€929.48 -
