Lot 98 Details
DOMAINE ARMAND ROUSSEAU RUCHOTTES-CHAMBERTIN 2011
Côte de Nuits. Grand Cru Classé

The 2011 Ruchottes-Chambertin Grand Cru was aged in a judicious 10% new oak. It has an entrancing bouquet that is a serious level up from the Mazy and Charmes-Chambertins with pure fresh strawberry, raspberry and violet aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with supple, sensual tannins and a fine line of acidity. This is silky smooth in the mouth, that prudent oak just giving it lift and sensuality. If I were buying 2011 Rousseau, my money would be spent here. Drink now-2025. 94 WA


2 bts. per lot $700 - $900

Realised: $960
