2019 Domaine Denis Mortet, Gevrey-Chambertin Premier Cru, Lavaut Saint-Jacques 1x750ml

Robert Parker 94

A high point of the range in this vintage is the 2019 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Lavaux Saint-Jacques, a medium to full-bodied, ample and perfumed wine evocative of sweet berry fruit and plums mingled with rose petals, peonies, orange rind and warm spices. Layered and seamless, with melting tannins and a succulent core of fruit, it concludes with a long, saline finish. [William Kelley, 01/02/2022]
