95 / 100"Lovely glowing purple, really sensual. But also firmer and with a bit of cherry kernel. This is two thirds Mazoyères which provides the steel. This is a good wine in 2020 but did not provide a step-up from the 1ers Crus. - 92-95 Points"

"Cask sample. Mellow, sweet fruit. Caressing elegance and very fine balance. - Matthew Hayes"

Tasting Notes
Armand Rousseau Charmes Chambertin is a shining example of the domaine’s expertise and the exceptional terroir of Gevrey-Chambertin. As one of Burgundy's most celebrated family-run estates, Rousseau brings a legacy of craftsmanship to every bottle, with a focus on purity, precision, and finesse. This 2020 Charmes-Chambertin offers an alluring blend of ripe red and dark fruits, subtle spice, and earthy complexity, supported by a refined structure. With its Grand Cru pedigree and the exceptional quality of the 2020 vintage, this wine is a perfect candidate for long-term cellaring.
