Frederic Esmonin, Gevrey Chambertin Lavaut St Jacques Vintage:2011 Lots of fruit and complexity

Lots of fruit and complexity plus delicacy

The 1990 Ausone is a vintage that I have tasted half a dozen times

Impressively integrated tannins add gentle support

silky tannins add to the wine's considerable raciness

with more textural looseness and openness in general

Frederic Esmonin, Gevrey Chambertin Lavaut St Jacques Vintage:2011 Lots of fruit and complexityA deft application of oak sets off the elegant and airy red pinot fruit that is really quite pure and this purity of expression also characterizes the detailed, precise and intensely mineral driven middle weight flavors, all wrapped in a balanced and palate staining finish. A wine of Zen like harmony. 91 2017+
