WINE DESCRIPTION

This vineyard is widely recognized as the finest 1er Cru location in Gevrey, often receiving higher praise than certain Grand Crus. The wines produced here are remarkably precise and straightforward, showcasing exceptional finesse. The vineyard boasts nearly 60-year-old vines and owes its success to the combination of pure limestone soil and a high-altitude southern exposure. The wine offers a significant presence of structure and tannin both in its aroma and taste, yet it maintains a sense of complexity rather than heaviness.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Domaine Bruno Clair Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru 'Clos St Jacques' is a classic expression of Burgundy terroir.Aromas of ripe red currants, dark cherry, and bergamot intermingle with hints of rose petal, allspice, and bay leaf. On the palate, this wine is medium-bodied and juicy with a structured tannin backbone. Bright acidity lifts the flavors, while a hint of earthiness and spice linger on the long finish. Enjoy now or cellar for up to a decade.
