Domaine Armand Rousseau Chambertin Grand Cru, Cote de Nuits, France 2022 1.5L
Chambertin Grand Cru is Pinot Noir at its most profound, a breathtaking expression of Burgundy’s most hallowed terroir. Seamlessly layered with black cherry, wild berries, rose petals, exotic spice, and a whisper of forest floor, it delivers extraordinary concentration wrapped in effortless elegance. Silky tannins, vibrant energy, and an endless mineral-driven finish make this a wine of remarkable balance and longevity. A true collector’s bottle from one of Burgundy’s most legendary estates, it promises decades of evolution while offering a rare glimpse of greatness from the moment it is uncorked.
"The 2022 Chambertin Grand Cru conveys a sense of grandeur on the nose, leaning slightly more towards red than black fruit, very harmonious and complex, with pressed flower scents filtering through with aeration. It is difficult to drag your nose away from the glass. The medium-bodied palate has very finely sculpted tannins and great depth with a smoothly textured, lightly spiced finish that lingers very long in the mouth. Superb." Vinous 96-98
