The fruit has retained a lovely delicacy and elegance, with aromas of ripe plums touched with liquorice and rose petal. There is a bit of reduction at this stage, but this will doubtless disappear with time. The texture is silky and very fine, with an approachable sensuality and a delightfully lingering finish.
The 2021 Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru has also turned out brilliantly in bottle, and readers will have a hard time choosing between this and the Lavaux Saint-Jacques. Bursting from the glass with aromas of peonies, wild berries, cherries, orange zest and spices, it's full-bodied, ample and multidimensional, with a broad attack that segues into a layered, enveloping core, concluding with a long, spicy finish.
