Gevrey-Chambertin Lavaux St-Jacques Premier Cru•2022

Deeply scented black berries and red cherry glide out of the glass, wrapped in a fine floral perfume, before Domaine Denis Mortet’s 2022 Gevrey-Chambertin Lavaux St-Jacques Premier Cru settles on the palate with a poised mix of density and lift. Silky yet firmly structured, it shows impressive depth for the vintage, carrying its fruit and spice in a graceful, unforced way that lingers long and refined on the finish.
