The Domaine Denis Mortet Gevrey-Chambertin Premier Cru Lavaux Saint-Jacques 2011 is a signature Premier Cru red Burgundy from an acclaimed domaine, now managed by Arnaud Mortet. The domaine holds five parcels in this Premier Cru, one of Gevrey`s most revered sites known for a more refined style of Gevrey power. The 2011 vintage offers a bouquet of raspberry coulis, wild strawberry and violet, developing minerality, dark berries and stone. The palate is medium-bodied with fine, supple tannins, exhibiting a silky texture and intensity, with layers of fruit, smoke, liquorice and spice on the persistent finish.

Vinous
(vinified with 40% whole clusters): Deep red. Aromas of black cherry and sweet oak are lifted by a mineral pungency. Dense, sappy and saline, with its serious volume leavened by energy and cut. Less oaky today than the Champeaux, with a hint of peppery pungency (from the stems?) giving shape and lift to the broad, full middle palate. Finishes with serious but harmonious tannins, a hint of chocolate and excellent life and lift.Stephen Tanzer1st March 2014
