The 2020 Gevrey-Chambertin Clos Saint-Jacques 1er Cru has an intense but delineated bouquet. It combines red and blue fruit, violet and subtle flinty aromas. There's fine mineralité here. The palate is quite robust with firm tannins. It's one of the grippier Clos Saint-Jacques, overtly spiced with compact black fruit towards the finish. It may be just a bit tough at the moment, but it will loosen up with time. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.

Cask sample. Intense, voluptuous nose. Rich and smooth. Perhaps worked just a little more than ideal? But clearly fantastic fruit quality. Worth swallowing! Long with quite an array of complex flavours already. Attractive juiciness. (JR)
