Pierre Girardin Lavaux Saint-Jacques Gevrey-Chabertin Premier Cru 2020
From the hallowed slopes of Gevrey-Chambertin in the Côte de Nuits, the Pierre Girardin Lavaux Saint-Jacques Premier Cru 2020 reflects the precision and energy of a rising star in Burgundy winemaking. Pierre Vincent Girardin, working from his state-of-the-art winery in Meursault, has brought new vitality to the region's most prestigious appellations. Sourced from the Lavaux Saint-Jacques vineyard, a revered Premier Cru site known for its structured yet expressive Pinot Noir, this wine captures the essence of its limestone-rich soils and cool northeastern exposure.
In the glass, this 2020 vintage reveals a perfumed bouquet of dark cherry, crushed raspberry, violets, and subtle forest floor. The palate is vibrant and layered, carrying a tension between purity and power with refined tannins and a precise mineral edge. Notes of red berries, earthy spice, and hints of smoked tea evolve with air, offering both youthful charm and long-term aging potential. Made entirely from Pinot Noir, the wine was aged in larger-format François Frères barrels, which lend subtle oak integration without overwhelming the fruit’s natural finesse.
With an alcohol content of 13%, this wine is best enjoyed slightly cool, around 60°F, in a Burgundy glass to allow its aromatic complexity to shine. Whether paired with duck confit, roasted mushroom dishes, or savored slowly on its own, it promises an evocative experience that speaks of place, pedigree, and the confident hand of a new generation Burgundian.
