**Note: from a 2.2 ha parcel raised in 70% new wood**
Discreet and well-integrated wood frames wonderfully fresh, airy, refined and beautifully complex aromas of red currant, warm earth, stone, crushed herbs and spice hints. The excellent depth of the nose continues onto the equally cool and brilliantly refined mineral-inflected medium-bodied flavors that possess outstanding depth of material and simply stunning length. While there have been many great vintages of Clos St. Jacques since 1955, it's at least possible the 2010 version could match some of the very best of them. I stress however that lots of patience will be required because even though the nose is presently still expressive, even after a few minutes in the glass this appears to be already shutting down.

I stress however that lots of patience will be required as this is even more structured than usual.
