Gevrey-Chambertin Armand Rousseau 2017 is a Pinot Noir from the Gevrey-Chambertin village appellation. Domaine Rousseau is one of the Burgundy region`s most iconic producers and this village wine is a blend from eight parcels, with a total of 1.68 hectares, that Rousseau owns within the Gevrey commune. This bottling was fermented in stainless steel and aged in old oak, showcasing Rousseau’s classic style of purity and refinement. It presents with notes of vibrant red berries, cherry and an undercurrent of earthy minerality, all framed by a supple structure and fine-grained tannins.
Vinous
The 2017 Gevrey-Chambertin Village offers brambly red berry fruit on the nose, hints of crushed stone that percolate through with aeration. The palate is more cohesive and fleshier than the Clos du Château: tart red berry fruit, black pepper and a light sous-bois note on the finish. This should be approachable after two or three years. I find this a step ahead of the Clos du Château this year. Neal Martin1st January 2019
