Lot 3 Details
DOMAINE ARMAND ROUSSEAU PÈRE ET FILS CHAMBERTIN-CLOS DE BÈZE 2016

Côte de Nuits. Grand Cru
scraped & marked label. wrinkled capsule.

The 2016 Chambertin-Clos de Bèze Grand Cru is showing brilliantly from bottle, unwinding with aeration to reveal a deep and brooding bouquet of plums, cassis and cherries mingled with notions of grilled meats, ceps, peonies and iodine. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, textural and enveloping, with a muscular chassis of ripe tannin that's cloaked in a core of vibrant and concentrated fruit, concluding with a long and thrillingly carnal finish. It will be fascinating to compare this with the qualitatively similar but stylistically very different 2015 vintage when both wines have 20 years on the clock. January 2020 Drink: 2030-2066 Bottle# 4747 WA 97
