Vinous (98)
The 2020 Gevrey-Chambertin Clos Saint-Jacques 1er Cru has a well-defined nose with beautiful red berry fruit, briar, hints of crushed stone and orange pith. This blossoms in the glass. The palate has exquisite balance, real depth and a gentle grip. There is a wonderful symmetry about this Clos Saint-Jacques, and there is a surfeit of mineralité towards the finish, the sapidity beckoning another sip. Outstanding. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.Inc. VAT£1,370.00 -

Fine mid purple colour. Already the oak (80% new wood) adds an extra level of intensity but clearly there is a wealth of fruit too. A burst of divine sweet fruit greets the back of the palate, long and lovely. Drink from 2028-2036.Inc. VAT£1,229.05 -

Medium red. Pretty aromas of red cherry and rose petal. Supple and full for this cuvee-a bit less strict than usual-with a silky texture to the red fruit and floral flavors. Finishes with sweet tannins and enticing lingering perfume.Inc. VAT£735.85 -

The 2010 Gevrey-Chambertin Lavaux St. Jacques wafts from the glass with crushed flowers, spices and expressive small red fruit. Weightless and impeccable throughout, the Lavaux St. Jacques impresses for its transparency and delicacy. This was the last parcel to be harvested in 2010.Inc. VAT£1,039.32 -
Vinous (88-91)
Moderately saturated bright medium red. Slightly reduced nose suggests black and red cherry, game and a hint of leather. Then supple and seamless in the mouth, with cherry and raspberry fruit flavors dominating. Finishes dense and long, with suave tannins and lingering sweetness.Inc. VAT£815.33 -

Not that much nose. Smells transparent somehow! Racy and lively – very lifted. Cool and fresh. Undramatic but rewarding with a peacock’s tail that’s very satisfying on the end. It’s all on the end!Inc. VAT£692.40 -

The 2019 Gevrey-Chambertin Lavaux Saint-Jacques 1er Cru has wonderful transparency on the nose of red currant and wild strawberry, plus glimpses of orange blossom and rose petal. The palate is medium-bodied with sappy red fruit, lightly spiced and quite peppery in the mouth. Fine grip and length. This is a lovely Lavaux that will be difficult to resist in its youth.Inc. VAT£916.92 -
Vinous (90-92)
The 2020 Gevrey-Chambertin Lavaux Saint-Jacques 1er Cru has a mineral-driven bouquet with dark berry fruit, sous-bois and just a touch of dessicated orange peel. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins and fine acidity. Is it the most complex Lavaux? Maybe not, though it has an attractive juiciness mixed with sapidity that keeps you coming back for more.Inc. VAT£882.53 -
Vinous - Neal Martin (93)
The 2021 Gevrey-Chambertin Lavaux Saint-Jacques 1er Cru has another impressive bouquet from this flight with bolder yet delineated and vivacious red fruit that leaps from the glass. Real energy and focus here. The palate is medium-bodied with fleshy ripe pliant tannins that frame the mineral-driven red fruit. Plenty of vigour and tension throughout this Gevrey-Chambertin; it feels detailed and sapid on the finish, urging you back for more. I was lukewarm about this from barrel and, as I suspected and wrote back then, it has gained weight and warrants a higher score. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.Inc. VAT£672.53 -
(1x75cl) 2006Vinous (87-89)
(these vines average more than 50 years of age) Pale, bright red. Aromatic nose combines red cherry, rose petal and mint. Supple and pretty, with lovely purity and moderate density to the red fruit and floral flavors. Offers nice balance and a light touch. Finishes with firm tannins and lingering perfume.Inc. VAT£888.53 -
(1x75cl) 2007Vinous (87-89)
Good bright medium red. Reduced aromas of red fruits and flowers. Silky on entry, then tight in the middle palate, with a medicinal austerity and underlying stoniness giving the wine a firm edge. The red cherry flavor is complicated by a whiff of game. Usually it's the Lavaux that's more minerally and hard, notes Eric Rousseau, who points out that this cuvee features the highest average vine age of the domain.Inc. VAT£888.53 -
(1x75cl) 2008Vinous (87-89)
Bright medium red. Wilder, slightly reduced aromas of strawberry, raspberry and game. Silky in texture, at once broader and less delineated than the Lavaux. A distinctly more sauvage wine with more volume and tannic presence. This is from old vines, notes Eric Rousseau, adding that the Lavaux includes some young vines that give that wine more sucrosite and elegance.Inc. VAT£888.53 -

Vinous (88-90)
Good deep red with ruby highlights. Dark raspberry and licorice on the nose, complicated by musky herbs, menthol, leather and game. Then less sweet and more medicinal in the mouth than the Lavaux, displaying distinctly darker flavors. In a more masculine style, finishing with tougher tannins. The vines here average 55 years of age, making them the oldest of the estate.Inc. VAT£806.40 -

Fragrant aromas of rose, cherry, sandalwood and sweet baking spice announce this polished, elegant red, whose intense flavors build nicely to the long finish, with a mineral element coming in on the aftertaste.

The average vine age is 40 years, now that they have replanted some. Floral and broad on the nose. Seems relatively light, with charming raspberry fruit but an undertow of strict structure that should keep it going for many a year. Seems light today. Good violet flavours and energy on the end.Inc.

Vinous (93)
The 2017 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Cazetiers 1er Cru is already showing a little maturity on the rim, possibly due to assiduous stem addition. The nose is open-knit and soft with brambly red fruit, perhaps needing a bit more delineation. The palate is sweet and candied on the entry and quite fleshy in style, with moderate acidity and a dash of white pepper. Plenty of extraction here. This just needs to develop a tad more tension and terroir expression on the finish. Otherwise it displays immense breeding. Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2017 tasting.Inc. VAT£4,582.32 -

The 2021 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Cazetiers 1er Cru is quite high-toned on the nose with just a bit more volatile acidity compared to its peers. It feels a little Grenache-like. The palate is well balanced with a supple opening, though a bit monotone and missing the amplitude of its peers. This is an easygoing 1er Cru that needs to muster more complexity and personality. The Domaine produced better wines in this vintage. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.Inc. VAT£3,770.00 -

The 2005 Gevrey-Chambertin captures the richness of the year in its pliant, open personality. Wonderfully dense and expressive, especially for a village-level wine, the 2005 is drinking beautifully today. Worn-in leather, spices, tobacco and dried dark cherries meld into the succulent, expressive finish. This is a terrific village-level offering from Rousseau.Inc. VAT£3,933.12 -

The Rousseau 2006 Gevrey-Chambertin displays a fascinating and unusual aromatic melange of wood smoke, cola, cherry, and cocoa powder. While relatively light in color and body, it is brashly smoky and bitter sweet in finish, as well as downright refreshing. Eric Rousseau's own litany of its virtues – not an unfamiliar one among growers this vintage, or among Rousseau's comments on his other 2006s – is equilibrium, vivacity, and finesse. I would recommend placing it at table based on its particular virtues, and doing so within the next 3-4 years ,although, naturally, this and other Rousseau 2006s might make a fool of me with its stamina.Inc.

The most prevalent and recognised or 'international grape' varieties in the world are mostly of French origin. The enduring popularity and respect of French wine has meant that Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Cabernet Sauvingon, Merlot and many others have been exported and experimented with around the world.
