WINE DESCRIPTION

This exquisite, full-bodied red wine from Domaine Armand Rousseau is a Grand Cru Clos des Ruchottes from the Ruchottes-Chambertin appellation in Burgundy, France. On the nose, it shows notes of red fruit, blackberry, and cassis, complemented by accents of raspberry, licorice, and mild mineral tones. On the palate, the wine is balanced, with a core of supple tannins, vibrant acidity, and a hint of grilled almond. The finish is long and complex, with a lingering hint of blackberry and spice. Enjoy this magnificent wine now or cellar for at least 8 to 10 years.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

This Domaine Armand Rousseau Ruchottes-Chambertin Grand Cru Clos des Ruchottes is an exquisite expression of the Pinot Noir grape.Deep garnet in color, the nose offers up aromas of wild strawberries, dark cherries, plums and black truffles, with a hint of forest floor. The palate is full-bodied and concentrated, with an intense core of ripe red and dark fruit flavors, complemented by firm, ripe tannins and a lively acidity. The finish is long and complex, with notes of cedar, tobacco and spices. This is a stunning wine, with remarkable balance and depth.
