    A subtle trace of wood frames the bright red pinot fruit and naturally spicy nose that is extremely fresh and this sense of vibrancy and freshness suffuses the rich, round and even more powerful lithe and tautly shaped flavors replete with the same energy and precision of the Ruchottes, all wrapped in a stony and perfectly balanced finish that seems to have no end. A stunning wine that should age for years and this is potentially the best CSJ that I have seen in the last 20 years.

Producer

Domaine Armand Rousseau

Domaine Armand Rousseau in Gevrey Chambertin is one of the finest domaines in Burgundy, and an icon of the international fine wine world. The domaine was established in the early nineteenth century, with the winery and cellars situated in the heart of the village, near the thirteenth century church. Armand was an early adopter of domaine-bottling, taking up the practice from the 1930s. The estate grew over the years, with such additions as Charmes Chambertin (1919), Clos de la Roche (1920) and Chambertin (1921). His son Charles joined in 1945 and followed in his father’s footsteps, continuing to expand the Domaine with an empahisis on Grand Cru land. In the 1980s, two new vaulted cellars were dug to increase capacity. Charles's son, Eric, was the next generation to join the family business in 1982, and he continued to improve, enlarge, and upgrade the cellars. Eric’s daughter, Cyrielle, joined the family domaine in 2014, and they look ever-forward.

Region

Gevrey Chambertin

The greatest village in terms of notable grand cru vineyards, Gevrey Chambertin has no less than 9 of them including its most famous Chambertin and Chambertin Clos de Bèze, and includes a premier cru vineyard that many people deem grand cru in quality - Clos St. Jacques. It encompasses approximately 400 hectares under vine also making it the largest top quality vineyard area in the Côte de Nuits. Gevrey-Chambertin has many followers who seek out its deeply coloured, robust and textured wines. They are often firmer than the neighbouring appellations of Chambolle Musigny and Vosne Romanée and can take several years to soften once released. Due to its size and reputation, the list of excellent producers is noteworthy and many are worth seeking out.
