A monumental effort built for decades to come, the 2005 Chambertin from Armand Rousseau may very well turn out to be the finest vintage ever produced from this famed estate and vineyard. It takes about three hours in the decanter to wake this sleeping giant, leading to a knockout punch of massively concentrated black fruit flavors along with dried rose pedals, dried herbs, black pepper, licorice, earth and savory notes. On the palate, the wine manages to be powerful yet energetic and vibrant at the same time, offering a mind-bending experience. Breathtaking. Drink from 2035 until 2065.
