Domaine Armand Rousseau
1 in stock
ROBERT PARKER " Just as I though Rousseau could not surpass the Clos Saint-Jacques, the Clos-des-Beze is even more captivating. A stunning nose of black cherries, hedgerow, plum, rose petals and cherry that has a slightly more rustic feel compared to the Clos Saint-Jacques. The full-bodied palate has a firm grip, perfect balance and acidity with black cherries, cherry sorbet, white peach and a touch of cassis. Good grip and persistency, sensuous texture, thankfully very long because you will want to savour this beauty for as long as possible. A formidable wine. Drinking 2015-2040. Tasted January 2007. "
