2009 Gevrey-Chambertin Clos Saint-Jacques 1er Cru Domaine Sylvie Es...

This Gevrey-Chambertin Clos St Jacques 1er Cru from Domaine Esmonin went through its malolactic fermentation late, so is very restrained compared to most. It has a magical intensity to the bouquet and there is a massive block of red and black fruit on the palate, together with a powerful finish. This will benefit from a few more months aging in barrel.
