Tasting notes
The 2010 Gevrey-Chambertin Lavaut Saint-Jacques 1er Cru has a refined bouquet with dark berry fruit, Earl Grey, light earthy scents emerging with time. There is just a hint of espresso in the background. The palate is medium-bodied with fine grain tannins, taut and fresh, not an intense Gevrey-Chambertin with just a little attenuation towards the finish. Maybe a little rustic compared to recent vintages, but there is a lovely tang of spice on the aftertaste. Tasted at Domaine Duroché.

About the producer
Domaine Duroché has, under Pierre Duroché, become one of the most sought-out and respected wine domaines in Gevrey-Chambertin. The wines are delicate and detailed, yet with old-vine intensity, a clear sense of place and style – and it’s easy to see why they’ve rapidly become so in-demand.
