92-93 WA. "The dark ruby-colored 1997 Gevrey-Chambertin Lavaux St. Jacques displays a nose reminiscent of a compote of black fruits and fresh herbs. It explodes on the palate with plummy fruit, a satin texture, and an ample body. Luscious and rich, it verges on being over-ripe, yet has a flattering streak of freshness to its personality."
