Very refined nose. Palate full of vivacity and liveliness. Truly very refined, and the vineyard expresses itself much better than the producer. It soars on the palate. Finish wonderfully balanced in flavours. Very fine tannins. Magnificent.

On the palate, this complex and harmonious red wine offers sumptuous aromas of rose, strawberry, cherry, and sandalwood, enhanced by notes of liquorice, earth, and spice. Silky and elegant, it reveals a mineral and graphite note on a long finish.

Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate
The Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Clos Saint-Jacques 2016 reveals itself brilliantly from the bottle, brimming with aromas of raspberry, Griotte cherry, peony, rich earthy notes, smoked meat and dark chocolate, all framed by a subtle application of new cedar oak. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied, deep and concentrated, with a rich and multidimensional core, framed by fine tannins and vibrant acidity, concluding with a long and intense finish.

Château Domaine Armand Rousseau
Domaine Armand Rousseau
Domaine Armand Rousseau

Domaine Armand Rousseau was founded at the beginning of the 20th century by Armand Rousseau. The estate comprises more than 15 hectares of vines, including 8.5 hectares of Grand Crus and 3.8 hectares of Premier Crus cultivated using sustainable farming methods. The vineyard soils are limestone and clay-limestone.

Domaine Armand Rousseau produces six emblematic Burgundy Grand Crus: Chambertin, Charmes Chambertin, Chambertin Clos de Bèze, Ruchottes Chambertin, Mazy Chambertin and Clos de la Roche.

The wine aging is done in 100% new oak barrels for Chambertin Clos de Bèze. Clos Saint Jacques is aged in 70% to 100% new barrels depending on the vintage. All other Grand Crus are aged in one-wine barrels. The barrels come from Allier forests and undergo medium toasting. The aging period is 20 months, during which two rackings are performed. Bottling usually takes place in April after a light plate filtration to preserve the delicate fruit of Pinot Noir. The wine is bottled by gravity, directly from the barrels after blending.

The wines from Domaine Armand Rousseau are made for long-term aging: 15 years for Premier Crus and 20 years for Grand Crus.
