Jadot Gevrey Chambertain 1er Cru 'Lavau Saint Jacques' 2022

"Quite structured and well laced with velvety tannins, the wine offers enticing cedar, cinnamon and cherry aromas. Bright red cherries, cranberries and raspberries on the palate are wrapped in very fine-grained tannins on a medium body. Gets more open and generous as you sip. Drink or hold."

"The 2022 Gevrey-Chambertin Lavaux Saint-Jacques 1er Cru has a little funk on the nose that quickly dissipates, revealing a marine/oyster shell-influenced bouquet that unfolds pleasingly in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grain tannins, edgy and nicely detailed. There is plenty of tension and terroir expression on the finish that is just pure Pinoté. This is very promising, a really elegant and winsome wine."

"Still one of the lighter colours, but with a greater density of red fruit on the nose. The oak is currently a little prominent, without really impacting the fresh red fruit. Medium length. Actually, there is quite a lot more to the Lavaux in the aftertaste."

"Another strong performer is the 2022 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Lavaux Saint-Jacques (Domaine Louis Jadot), a medium to full-bodied, pure and fleshy wine evocative of raspberries, spices, orange zest and smoke. Lively and precise, it concludes with a mouthwatering finish."
