17 / 20"Cask sample. Mid-dark cherry. Deep red fruits, cherry, wild strawberries and raspberry. There’s a meaty, mushroom quality – very complex for something so young, with lots of depth and spice. Fine, refined and elegant tannins. Greater imposition but with elegant finesse. - Matthew Hayes"

Tasting Notes
Chambertin is one of the most revered Grand Cru vineyards in the Côte de Nuits region of Burgundy. The vineyard's unique soil composition, microclimate, and ideal sun exposure create the perfect conditions for growing Pinot Noir grapes of unparalleled complexity, elegance, and aging potential.
The domaine produces pale, finely structured wines of great elegance and stamina. The simple principle of old (but not ancient) vines and sensible yields dictates the Rousseau style. Sometimes the wines can appear light in their youth, but they nearly always take on weight as they age.
