Domaine Frédéric Esmonin
Gevrey-Chambertin "Estournelles St. Jacques" 1er Cru 2013
Here too there is just enough wood present to warrant noting though it does not impinge on the otherwise wonderfully elegant, pure and airy blue pinot fruit, violet, plum and soft earth scents. There is a lovely vibrancy and ample minerality to the intense yet seductively detailed flavors that are underpinned by moderately firm tannins on the balanced and strikingly persistent finale. This is lovely and textbook ESJ as it's a wine of finesse and refinement.
