Score 92-94/100 · Drink 2022-2040, Neal Martin, Jan 2019

The 2017 Gevrey-Chambertin Lavaut Saint-Jacques 1er Cru is completely de-stemmed and raised in 60% new oak. Like the Clos Prieur, it has a vivacious, well defined bouquet with slightly more red fruit by comparison. In addition, the floral element is more pronounced, especially after three or four minutes of aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with very supple tannin that lend this Lavaut Saint-Jacques a silky smooth texture. There are darker fruit stacked towards the back end of this Lavaut, the length is really quite impressive.
