Wine Expert Note:
This Domaine Frédéric Esmonin Lavaux Saint-Jacques Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru is a stunning red Burgundy from the Cote de Nuits region. On the nose, aromas of raspberry, redcurrant and spice dominate, with hints of earth, tobacco and leather. On the palate, the wine is full and supple, with juicy red fruit and a hint of graphite minerality. The finish is elegant and long, with fine-grained tannins and a lingering hint of spice and earth. A truly remarkable expression of Burgundy terroir.Taste Flavor
