Armand Rousseau Chambertin Grand Cru 2019

Jancis Robinson: Intense and beautifully balanced on the nose. But actually quite light – perhaps this is an illusion? But I would never guess this was Chambertin blind. It seems to dance rather than throw its weight around – though it does build on the end. A floral note. Very subtle! Lots of fine tannin. 18++/20 (2020)

Parker: The 2019 Chambertin Grand Cru is very promising, unwinding in the glass with aromas of exotic spices, grilled meats, cherries, cassis, dark chocolate, licorice and loamy soil. Full-bodied, deep and concentrated, it was the most introverted, tightly wound wine in the cellar on the day of my visit. Broad-shouldered and elegantly muscular, it's bright and precise, concluding with a penetrating finish. 96-98/100 (2021)
