An In-Depth Understanding of Terroir
The soul of the wine lies in its origin – the Lavaux St-Jacques vineyard in Gevrey-Chambertin, Burgundy, France. This vineyard is characterized by its unique location and terroir, which includes a calcareous clay soil and a moderate continental climate. These factors contribute to the slow ripening of the grapes and the development of complex aromas and flavors.

Vinification and Production:
From Grapes to Exclusivity To create this remarkable wine, the grapes are carefully harvested by hand in early October, when they have reached optimal ripeness. The slow and gentle fermentation with skin contact contributes to the wines' intense color and aromas. After fermentation, the wine matures in oak barrels, of which 30% are new, for a full 18 months. This careful process develops the wine's structure and character, culminating in a harmonious balance between tannins, acidity and fruit.

Flavor Profile and Aromas: A True Experience for the Senses The deep ruby red color of Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Lavaux St-Jacques immediately suggests its intensity. The fragrance is a complex symphony of red berries, such as cherry and raspberry, combined with subtle notes of forest floor and discreet spices. At first sip, the wine moves elegantly across the palate with a silky texture. The taste is dominated by ripe red fruits that are perfectly balanced by a refreshing acidity and refined tannins. Notes of forest soil and a slight smoky undertone add further complexity and depth to the wine. The 2017 vintage demonstrates its impressive aging potential and can be enjoyed now or left to mature further for 5-10 years.
