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

"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."

The 2022 offers a nose of pear, citrus oil, fresh bread and toasted hazelnut. The palate is satiny and incisive, with fine mineral tension and a long, spicy finish. Critics hail it as one of the finest Clos de la Barre in recent years

A very pungent nose speaks only of reduction and wood. Otherwise the succulent but more voluminous middle weight plus flavors exude a subtle minerality before concluding in solidly powerful

Meursault
The nose combines lemon, lime, peach and apricot, with a floral and mineral touch. The palate is full and creamy, driven by lively acidity and vibrant fruit. The finish is clean and long, with citrus and minerality
Domaine Bart

A distinctly earthy and spicy nose flashes notes of dark cherry, rose petal and raspberry. The much richer and more concentrated big-bodied flavors possess excellent power on the robust, dusty and mouth coating finish
