Burgundy Lovers Rejoice: Grand Crus from Armand Rousseau

Armand Rousseau ranks alongside Romanée-Conti, Leroy, and Leflaive as one of Burgundy's most legendary producers, and simply put, their wines belong in every collector's cellar. Founded in the 1930s, Rousseau helped pioneer the practice of estate-bottling in Burgundy, and today the domaine owns a staggering 8 hectares of Grand Cru vineyards in the heart of Gevrey-Chambertin. Estate Wine Brokers is proud to present a rare offering of Rousseau's magisterial Chambertin Grand Cru along with the excellent 1er Cru Lavaux Saint Jacques and Clos de la Roche Grand Cru, Rousseau's only vineyard holding outside of Gevrey:

Armand Rousseau Chambertin Grand Cru 2013
WA 95 "...blessed with wonderful focus and precision, armed with outstanding tension and intensity on the sophisticated finish. This is what we call in the trade: "proper Chambertin."

Armand Rousseau Gevrey-Chambertin Lavaux Saint-Jacques 1er Cru 2014
WA 91-93 "...You are immediately struck by the fineness of the tannin here. Real energy and tension from the word go."

Armand Rousseau Clos de la Roche Grand Cru 2014
WA 94-96 "The palate is silky smooth on the entry, beautifully poised...This is one of the best Clos de la Roche that I have tasted from Rousseau in recent years"

Quantities are extremely minute and we expect these wines to disappear quickly, so act now to reserve your selections.
