Domaine Esmonin Sylvie Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru 2021
Burgundy wine Clos Saint Jacques
Ripe and pretty but somber as the pungently and deeply pitched earthy dark berry fruit aromas exhibit nuances of game and underbrush that are picked up on the textured, dense and mouth coating medium full flavors that offer excellent depth and length. This is not an especially elegant wine but it's a classic old school Gevrey
Allen Meadows : 93 points

"A mildly toasty nose reflects mostly notes of exceptionally ripe liqueur-like spiced plum, cassis, warm earth and a suggestion of sauvage character. The energetic, powerful and tautly muscular flavors possess an abundance of minerality that imparts an agreeable verve to the ever-so-austere finish that offers excellent depth and persistence. This harmonious effort could even be enjoyed young though it should also have no difficulty rewarding extended keeping."

An ultra-spicy and markedly floral nose combines notes of red cherry, wild currant and earth with those of soft game and underbrush nuances. The polished, sophisticated and intense middle weight

The nose offers white peach, citrus and white flowers, with a touch of hazelnut. The palate is fleshy and creamy, carried by bright acidity and chalky minerality

The 2019 Echézeaux Grand Cru has a clean and very precise bouquet: nicely focused with palpable mineralité even at this early juncture
