Description

This 1989 red wine comes from the famous Burgundy region, in France.

"Lavaut Saint Jacques has aromas of red fruit and violet. The palate is sound, lively and fruity from morello, conveying delicacy and gourmandise. A discrete woody nose suggests elegance while the tannic structure reveals the majestic quality. Good length on the palate." - Domaine Drouhin-Laroze

In the heart of the Côte de Nuits, Gevrey-Chambertin is the area with the highest concentration of red Grands Crus of which the legendary Chambertin and Chambertin-Clos-de-Bèze, great favourites of Napoleon.

The wines of Gevrey-Chambertin, only red from Pinot Noir, are sought after for their great strength and velvet texture.
