The “Lavaut Saint-Jacques” has a flamboyant perfume of strawberries, raspberries, cherry, and hints of hibiscus and violet petals followed by cinnamon, vanilla and pepper.
Domaine Duroché has become an overnight superstar in Gevrey-Chambertin, and is a true winemaking fairy tale. Only five years after taking the helm of his family Domaine, Pierre Duroché gained global recognition with exceptional his exceptional Pinots grown on a myriad of Gevrey-Chambertin’s best plots. These comprise well-located village holdings, powerful Premier Crus and blockbuster Grand Crus. Domaine Duroché’s wines are some of the purest expressions of Pinot Noir in the Burgundy region. Duroché’s “Lavaut St-Jacques” comes from a 1.2-ha, south-facing plot that is situated next to “Clos Saint-Jacques”. The vines were planted in 1923 and 1980.
Lavaut-St-Jacques was not the last to be picked for once, to avoid flétri (wrinkled skins) which was threatening, and it certainly comes across as quite ripe. Mid purple. The bouquet takes a little searching out, then sensual red and black fruit across the palate. Not ultra concentrated but quite fine. Drink from 2029-2036.
