Wine Expert Note:

This wine is a premier cru from the Gevrey-Chambertin region in Burgundy, France. On the nose, the Domaine Frédéric Esmonin Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru 'Estournelles Saint Jacques' offers a complex bouquet of red fruits, such as cherries and raspberries, intertwined with earthy notes of forest floor and truffles. There is also a hint of spice, adding depth and intrigue to the aroma profile. The palate is equally impressive, with a medium to full body and silky tannins that provide a smooth and elegant mouthfeel. The red fruit flavors continue to dominate, accompanied by subtle hints of oak and a touch of minerality. This wine would pair beautifully with roasted game birds, grilled lamb, or aged cheeses. Enjoy it now or cellar it for further development.
