Domaine Tortochot Lavaux St-Jacques Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru 2021

Description

A much less expressive, indeed brooding, nose is comprised by notes of both red and dark currant, humus-tinged earth, game and a whiff of herbal tea. There is excellent volume to the bigger-bodied, rich and more powerful flavors that possess slightly better depth and persistence as well. Good stuff and a wine that should repay a decade plus of keeping. Drink: 2031+. Score – 92. (Allen Meadows, burghound.com, Jan. 10, 2024)
