"The 2021 Gevrey-Chambertin Lavaux Saint-Jacques 1er Cru has slightly darker blacker fruit on the nose, more sultry and backward with a patina of oak to be subsumed. That said, there is sufficient fruit here. The palate is medium-bodied with powdery tannins. Dark plum and raspberry fruit, graphite and a touch of seaweed make it feel very sapid, almost briny towards the finish, and that gets the saliva flowing. It is an uncompromising Gevrey that does not care about pleasing the masses. But I find this absolutely absorbing and am fascinated to see how it will mature in bottle. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting."
