Domaine Armand Rousseau - Chambertin Grand Cru - 2001

Stunning aromatic complexity with ultra pure layers upon layers of black and red pinot fruit mixed with violets, dried rose petals and rich soil notes plus far more minerality than this wine usually displays. The moderately structured flavors are buffered by superb extract and the sheer depth and breadth of flavors is dazzling. As classic Chambertin goes, this is not especially massive and more of a muscular middle weight but it is incredibly long and the intensity is simply breathtaking. 91-94 Points. 2014-2020+.
