Based in Gevrey-Chambertin, Domaine Armand Rousseau unquestionably sits amongst the greats of Burgundy with a portfolio of wines from some of the most revered vineyards in the region. This wine comprises grapes from two parcels of Charmes-Chambertin and one of Mazoyères-Chambertin and is renowned for its supple texture, elegance and ageing potential.

Vinous
- The 2015 Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru has a well-defined nose of morello cherry and crushed strawberry suffused with rose petals; it is one of the finest bouquets in this peer group flight, although it fails to articulate the promise it demonstrated in barrel. The medium-bodied palate offers supple tannin, crisp acidity, good focus and detail and a fine seam of mineralité on the finish. It just lacks a bit of substance and doesn’t quite possess the persistence you expect. Tasted blind at the annual Burgfest tasting.
