Gevrey-Chambertin Estournelles Saint-Jacques Premier Cru•2022

Initially discreet on the nose, the 2022 Louis Jadot Gevrey-Chambertin Estournelles Saint-Jacques Premier Cru builds in the glass with pure red currant and cherry fruit, light spice and a hint of flowers over a stony, earth-tinged background. The palate is sleek and finely etched rather than powerful, its juicy acidity and mineral spine giving precision and a gentle, chalky austerity to the long, refined finish—classic, quietly confident Estournelles in a ripe year.
