Vinous: 92-94 Points
The 2017 Gevrey-Chambertin Estournelles Saint-Jacques 1er Cru has a slightly minty, generous bouquet compared to the Les Cazetiers, very pure in style and nicely defined. The palate is supple on the entry and smooth in texture, with a plump, caressing and quite detailed finish that is very classy. A little gem from Jadot.
Burghound: 91-93 Points
Here too the wood and menthol influences are anything but subtle though it detracts only mildly from the elegant, cool and admirably pure aromas of red and dark currant trimmed in a soft spice nuances. The equally round and succulent middle weight flavors are a bit less mineral-driven before culminating in a firm and serious finish that is shaped by relatively fine-grained tannins. This is a bit woody today but otherwise lovely.
Wine Advocate: 91-93 Points
The 2017 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Estournelles Saint-Jacques (Domaine Louis Jadot) offers up attractive aromas of red plums, wild berries, citrus rind and coniferous forest floor. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, satiny and layered, with nice flesh and concentration, underpinned by a bright line of animating acidity.
