From a parcel planted in 1923 where most of the old vines remain intact, this cuvée always seems to possess an extra dimension, and the 2018 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Lavaut Saint-Jacques Vieilles Vignes is no exception. Wafting from the glass with a deep bouquet of cassis, cherries, rose petals, grilled meats and sweet soil tones, it's medium to full-bodied, deep and layered, framed by powdery tannins and lively acids. Integrated and harmonious, this will be long-lived.
