"In the Armand Rousseau cellar you are given the Saint-Jacques to taste after the Clos de la Roche, Ruchottes and Mazis, and the Saint-Jacques is awarded a higher percentage of new oak. It is always the best of the wines . . . . This is a wine of real depth and dimension, slightly lusher and plumper than the two greatest Gevrey wines, but no less classy, no less inspiring. It is clearly head and shoulders above all the other Gevrey premiers crus."
