93 points Neal Martin (Vinous): "The 2023 Gevrey-Chambertin Lavaux Saint-Jacques 1er Cru takes time to cohere in the glass. The 40% new oak is neatly integrated (matured in 300-liter barrels and feuillettes). Hints of marmalade and blood orange intermingle with the red fruit that is higher-toned than the Estournelles. The palate is medium-bodied and fleshy, with supple tannins and fine grip. It's more peppery than the Estournelles, with a persistent finish. This should mature beautifully in bottle. Drink: 2027-2045. (Jan 2025)"
92 points/'Outstanding,' Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(from a .26 ha holding). A restrained but classic Gevrey nose is composed of plenty of sauvage and forest floor nuances on the mostly dark berry fruit scents. As one would reasonably expect, there is better volume, power and muscle to the bigger-bodied, if less refined, flavors that brim with minerality on the solidly persistent and firmer finale. While the Estournelles and the Lavaut are qualitatively similar, they offer two very different impressions. Drink: 2033+. (Jan 2025)"
