Jean Marie Fourrier - Gevrey Chambertin Clos St. Jacques 1er Cru Vieilles Vignes (Domaine) 2017

THE WINE ADVOCATE: "The 2017 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Clos Saint-Jacques is irresistible, offering up a deep and complex bouquet in which notes of red berries, cassis and forest floor mingle with nuances of cedar wood, grilled meat and smoke. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, beautifully complete and multidimensional, with extraordinarily satiny, supple tannins, juicy acids and a long, lingering finish. This may not prove to be the longest-lived Clos Saint-Jacques Jean-Marie has produced in his career, but in terms of sheer charm and sensory appeal it will be impossible to fault. Fifteen barrels were produced."
