Lot 145 Details
DOMAINE ARMAND ROUSSEAU CHAMBERTIN CLOS DE BÈZE 2010

Côte de Nuits. Grand Cru

The 2010 Chambertin-Clos de Beze bursts from the glass with an exciting melange of blackberries, cassis, graphite, violets and exotic spices. The Beze is the most exuberant wine in the Rousseau lineup. Black cherries, spices and licorice develop in the glass, adding considerable weight and texture as the wine continues to flesh out. Firm, massive tannins provide the perfect foil for the exuberant fruit. Today the Beze is massive, but it should be spectacular once the tannins start melting away. Anticipated maturity: 2025-2050. 94 WA

Estimate $2,900-$3,200

Realised: $3,120
Price Includes Buyer's Premium ?
