"There is plenty of relatively somber Gevrey character on the nose with concentrated, beautifully complex flavors that seem more rustic than usual. I very much like the density and this completely coats the mouth with firm but ripe tannin wrapped in plenty of extract."

"Good medium ruby color. Crystallized black raspberry, violet, minerals and leather on the complex nose. Sweet, dense and rich, with plenty of flesh to support its structure. A step up in texture from the premier cru. Wonderfully balanced, youthful 2001 with excellent structure and verve for aging. Finishes very long and a bit austere, with extremely fine tannins for the vintage." -Vinous

"Light to medium-bodied and tightly wound, the raspberry-scented 2001 Gevrey-Chambertin Lavaux-St.-Jacques, produced in one of its commune’s cooler vineyards, has a vivacious personality. Strawberries, red currants, and raspberries are found throughout its fresh character as well as in its long, tannic finish." -Robert Parker
