Clos de la Roche Armand Rousseau 1999, from the esteemed Gevrey-Chambertin estate, showcases a complex profile typical of its Grand Cru lineage. The nose presents a blend of dark berries with subtle earthy undertones and hints of leather. On the palate, the wine exhibits considerable size and weight, revealing rich, powerful flavours that linger impressively. While the structure is notable, some warmth is detected, indicative of its vintage.

Vinous
- Full ruby-red color. Ripe, vibrant aromas of black cherry, smoked meat, mocha and coffee. Silkier on the palate than the Mazis, with cherry and licorice flavors. This, too, shows rather pronounced acidity, but has the texture to support it. Finishes bright, long and tight, with noticeable acids and firm tannic spine. Needs considerable time in bottle but offers excellent potential.
