Lot 579 Details
DOMAINE ARMAND ROUSSEAU CHAMBERTIN 2013

Côte de Nuits. Grand Cru Classé

Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting in Beaune, the 2013 Chambertin Grand Cru from Armand Rousseau had a slight reduction on the nose but underneath lies some gorgeous and ripe redcurrant, strawberry and bay leaf aromas. Very complex, but you need to wait for the aromas to fully get into their stride. The palate is extremely well balanced with fine tannins. It is blessed with wonderful focus and precision, armed with outstanding tension and intensity on the sophisticated finish. This is what we call in the trade: "proper Chambertin." Tasted September 2016. Drink: 2018-2050 WA 95

1 bt.    per lot $1,800 - $2,000

Realised: $2,040
