Gevrey Chambertin Clos Saint Jacques, Domaine Esmonin 2008

Tasting Notes

**Note: 40+ year old vines aged in 100% new oak with 60% whole cluster fermentation**
A similar if more elegant and more complex nose leads to dense, mineral-driven and beautifully detailed middle weight flavors that possess excellent precision on the tautly muscled and balanced finish. This is a wine of class and grace that delivers remarkably good focus and length. Recommended.
