Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Lavaux Saint-Jacques Jean-Luc & Eric Burguet 2022
The wine
Located in the northern part of the appellation, the Premier Cru Lavaux Saint-Jacques enjoys an ideal exposure. The Pinot Noir vines, facing south-east, are sheltered by the Combe de Lavaux, which moderates climatic extremes. The marl-limestone soils mixed with clay contain a high proportion of stones, lending the wine its precise, mineral structure. Manual harvests are followed by strict sorting in the vineyard and in the winery to retain only the finest bunches. Fermentation then takes place with native yeasts over 15 days, punctuated by regular gentle punch-downs and pump-overs. Ageing extends over 18 months in French oak casks.
In the glass, the wine reveals a deep ruby hue with garnet highlights. The rich, complex bouquet weaves together black fruit, sweet spice, liquorice, floral notes and a mineral touch. On the palate, the wine is ample and concentrated, with refined, silky tannins, with a perfect balance of power, freshness and length.
Located in the heart of the Burgundy village of Gevrey-Chambertin, the vineyard recounts the fascinating story of Alain and his two sons, Jean-Luc and Eric. Taking over from their father, both brothers have chosen to remain faithful to his ethos and commitment by producing great wines that reflect the purest expression of Pinot Noir and the Côte de Nuits. The yields from each parcel, which include an exceptional heritage of old vines, are carefully regulated to ensure that the fruit is concentrated, fragrant and intense. In addition, the domain has the particularity of harvesting its grapes late, at optimum ripeness, and applying low-intervention viticulture methods, close to organic agriculture. These strict practices are the guarantee of premium quality raw materials and exceptional wines, which reflect the flavours of the region and grape variety to perfection.
