Grape sugars were in the very high 13% to 14% range in 2002, according to Sylvie Esmonin, who destemmed all her fruit and fermented her Clos Saint-Jacques with a percentage of whole clusters.She did more pumpovers and fewer punchdowns because she wanted to keep the grapes intact as long as possible in order to preserve freshness.The style here has become increasingly modern and new-oaky in recent years, with the 2002 Clos Saint-Jacques aging in 100% new barrels.I found the 2001s difficult to taste in the cellar in November; my notes below are on a delicious set of wines I sampled in New York in February.
