The Story
Clos Saint-Jacques is widely regarded as one of Gevrey-Chambertin’s benchmark Premier Cru sites, and the 2022 from Louis Jadot shows exactly why. The nose is immediately expressive, with finely detailed red berry fruit layered over a distinct mineral core and subtle spice. The palate is poised yet powerful, with finely chiseled tannins, vibrant acidity and impressive concentration. There’s a sense of precision and flow here, building toward a long, detailed finish that lingers with both freshness and depth.
A serious Pinot Noir with excellent ageing potential, best enjoyed with roast lamb, duck or earthy mushroom dishes over the next decade or more.
