Take the stress out of buying a gift, let them choose exactly what they want.
With a spicy, fresh structure, and a regal quality to the fruit, this is a highlight of the Clair cellar. It shows a suave power, and a cool, controlled, elegance. The Clairs are one of only five producers to share this revered premier cru, that many regard as equal to the Gevrey grands crus, which they refer to as ‘the Prince of Gevrey’. It is steep by Burgundian standards, with clay-rich soil. Just three barrels made in 2024.

The 2024 Gevrey-Chambertin Clos Saint-Jacques 1er Cru has an exquisite bouquet with precise and (again) mineral-driven red fruit that gracefully glide from the glass. Wonderful delineation. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly chalky tannins, quite citrus and like other Gevreys from Bruno Clair there is an underlying blood orange note that defines the finish. Quite strict and linear, this will require some bottle age to just shave its corners.
