Score 91-93/100 · Drink 2000-2005, Pierre Rovani, Jun 2000

The saturated, dark ruby/purple-colored 1998 Gevrey-Chambertin Lavaux St. Jacques has toasted oak and over-ripe black fruit aromas. On the palate, flavors reminiscent of Welch's grape jelly, hoisin sauce, and licorice can be found in this medium to full-bodied wine. Fresh, bright, and intense, its profound layers of fruit cover a firm, tannic edge. Drink this wine over the next 4-5 years. Importer: Weygandt-Metzler, Peter Weygandt, Unionville, PA; tel. (610) 486-0800.
