Gevrey Chambertin Clos Saint Jacques, Domaine Bruno Clair 2010

Tasting Notes

**Note: from a 1 ha parcel of 40+ year old vines**
This is aromatically similar to the Cazetiers except that there is a top note of restrained and cool red berry fruit that elevates the elegance to where this is perhaps the most refined nose in the entire range. As is usually the case, the supporting tannins of the ultra-fine middle weight flavors are more polished and the overall mouth feel is a wine of extreme sophistication, all wrapped in an explosive, long and focused finish. This too is absolutely terrific though again, plenty of patience will be required.
