Gevrey Chambertin 1er Cru Lavaux St Jacques 2016

- 95 points -

An acquisition that came with the Dupont-Tisserandot purchase in 2012, this hails from
three parcels amounting to one hectare in total. It’s a brilliant expression of the Premier Cru, with abundant scents of violet and blood orange and a palate that combines supple sweetness with focus and acidity.
