Decanter, 94 Points 

"From a 0.47ha parcel in a terroir which is cooler than Clos-St-Jacques, the destemmed fruit was aged in used casks, giving a vibrant wine, with an expressive, perfumed red fruit nose and a fresh, lively texture that cloaks a wine of true concentration and length. Perfect for mid-term ageing." 

Wine Advocate, 91-93 Points 

"The 2019 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Lavaux Saint-Jacques is promising, mingling aromas of cassis and smoky berries with hints of loamy oil, raw cocoa and potpourri. Medium-bodied, bright and lively, with a succulent core of fruit framed by ultra-refined tannins, it concludes with a long, perfumed finish. This is the highest-alcohol wine in the cellar in 2019, but that certainly didn't stand out in the glass." 

Burghound, 90-93 Points 

"Moderate reduction dominates the underlying fruit today. Otherwise there is very good volume and intensity to the tautly muscular and serious medium-bodied flavors that brim with minerality while exhibiting excellent depth and persistence on the well-balanced and mildly austere finale. This is firm but not as firm as it usually is though with that said, it will still need 10 to 12 years of cellaring. *Burghound Outstanding!*

Jasper Morris, 92 Points

"Deep crimson to magenta in colour. The nose is rather backward, hidden by a little oak and reduction. The latter soon fades, the former stays in place, and adds a dry note to the finish. But not to worry, as there is more than adequate fruit to stay through the race. Not seductive for now but a sound bet for later." 

Vinous, 92 Points 

"The 2019 Gevrey-Chambertin Lavaux Saint-Jacques 1er Cru has plenty of fruit on the nose—raspberry, wild strawberry, rose petal and light sous-bois scents. Cohesive yet restrained, the aromatics will need bottle age to show their true potential. The palate is medium-bodied with filigree tannins. Showing citrus-fresh red fruit and wonderful balance, there is just a patina of wood that shaves some delineation and terroir expression away at the finish. Otherwise, this has a lot of potential, and it improves with aeration." 

Alcohol: 14.5%
