Gevrey Chambertin Clos St Jacques 2015 Armand Rousseau

Professionele reviews

Robert Parker (96)

The 2015 Gevrey Chambertin 1er Cru Clos Saint Jacques has a very perfumed bouquet with layers of morello cherry, quince, raspberry preserve, crushed rock and elements of darker fruit that become more pronounced with aeration—blackberry and a touch of blueberry. The palate is very structured with good backbone. However, following the effervescent Ruchottes-Chamerting, this Clos Saint-Jacques is decidedly more backward and surly at the moment, although there is tremendous grip on the very saline finish. This will need more ageing in bottle than other crus, but the substance and energy is all here to create a formidable Clos Saint-Jacques.
