Domaine Armand Rousseau Nestled in the heart of Gevrey-Chambertin, this family estate has embodied Burgundian excellence for nearly a century. A story of passion and precision, where each bottle tells the story of the terroir. - Terroir: Clay-limestone soils of the Côte de Nuits, the cradle of great Pinot Noirs, where minerality and freshness are expressed with elegance. - Vinification: Ageing in French oak barrels, respect for natural cycles and the pursuit of a pure and vibrant expression of the grape variety.
Tasting notes for Domaine Armand Rousseau Gevrey-Chambertin 2018 To the eye: A deep ruby robe with garnet highlights, of a silky density and crystalline brilliance, heralding a character that is both generous and precise. On the nose: A bouquet where ripe black cherry, fresh blackcurrant, touches of violet and a hint of liquorice mingle, before a subtle chalky note underlines the minerality of the terroir. On the palate: A velvety attack, carried by a lively acidity and a fine tannic structure, where aromas of light tobacco, gentle spices and a saline, long and persistent finish unfold. Serve at 14-16°C in a Burgundy glass to release its full complexity.
Vintage 2018 A sunny and balanced vintage, where the ripeness of the fruits combines with a mineral freshness, offering a harmonious expression of the Gevrey-Chambertin terroir. - Ageing potential: Enjoyable now, but this wine will reveal its full depth with time, ideally kept for 10 to 25 years in a cool and humid cellar.
