Stunning lavaux-st Jacques. Extremely precise, great salinity, red berries, mineral with great integrated oak, wild mushrooms and some pepper. Will be great for many years to come.

Lovely wine. Everything that Denis Mortet tried to accomplish, a fully extracted yet elegant Gevrey but never managed. His son gets it, very juicy tannins and delightful acidity. Medium body, peonies, black fruit and a bit smokeyness. Long finish. Powerful and elegant.

powerful and delicate at the same time. Typical Denis mortet wine. Wait for at least 5 years.

Plenty of red fruit, great salinity, long finish. On the light side.

Very good. Complex. Dark fruit classic. Hint dark cherries, orange peel, spices. But 225$. Worth the money? Not really.

This balanced beauty may reach 2006 standard in time. Lovely fruit forward in it's youth but will mature well
