"Esmonin's Gevrey-Chambertin Clos St.-Jacques is concentrated, and reveals a dazzling array of aromas such as plums, cassis, dried herbs, and toasty new oak. It is altogether enthralling. In the mouth, the wine is harmonious and surprisingly soft, but there is tannin in the finish. This rich, relatively large-scaled wine should age gracefully . . ." Burgundy Book, Dec 1989 |
