Another stunning Chambertin from the Burgundy dinner in Sydney 6 weeks ago. An absolutely gorgeous nose. Interestingly 100% new oak but the powerful fruit just swallows it. A little Animale/Feral note which adds interest. The medium plus bodied palate shows a savoury and sinewy texture. This has got the lot and still with a long window up to the early 2040s. Surpassed the 2002 in my book.

A glorious nose. Kaleidoscopic fruit with bright cherry, violets, lifted wild strawberry. So much going on and sooo pretty. Very pure and defined on the palate. Still quite contained. I suspect this will be spectacular in a few more heard but truly delicious now. Pure class.

Singing at such a young age, last couple of Rousseau I had suffered from premox- this beauty was in prime condition. What a treat.

Pair of 12’s with the Rousseau showing more finesse & floral than the Roumier that will need more time

Lots of Raspberry and red Cherries, ultra smooth and long, this is a winner!
