Grand Cru
Vinous Media 95-97 Points, Neal Martin, Vinous: "The 2017 Gevrey-Chambertin Clos Saint-Jacques 1er Cru has a very perfumed bouquet, beautifully defined with fragrant raspberry preserve, wild strawberry, rose petal and crushed granite aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with velvety tannin. It is not a powerful Clos Saint-Jacques nor the most complex, yet it is utterly harmonious and so silky smooth on the finish that you will find this nigh irresistible. Sensual and gunning for top position amongst the five Clos Saint-Jacques growers in this vintage. (Drink between 2022-2045)" 01/19 Burghound Notes 93-95 Points, Allen Meadows, Burghound: The 2017 Gevrey-Chambertin Clos Saint-Jacques 1er Cru Armand Rousseau; "Here the wood treatment is much more in the foreground though not so much as to mask the fresh and cool aromas of red currant, wet stone, tea and forest floor. Like the Ruchottes the mouthfeel of the middle weight flavors is quite sleek and ultra-intense while flashing plenty of minerality on the strikingly well-detailed finish that displays focused power and superb length. This is an exercise in harmony and grace and while it should be approachable after only 6 to 8 years, it should age effortlessly for several decades. (Drink starting 2037)" Issue #73, 01/19
