Domaine Armand Rousseau
Chambertin Clos de Bèze Grand Cru Pinot Noir
Gorgeous roses and soft plum. A super expressive and beautiful nose. Just goes in forever and the fruit is so poised and succulent. Sift, delicious and long- this is brilliant stuff

May 9th, 2024Detailed and pure with plum, black cherry, a silky, rounded texture. Absolutely forgoes. Quite quiet alongside the other two Beze. So sophisticated.

May 9th, 2024Soft dark fruit. Black cherry, blue fruit, a minerality and iron note gives this a lush brooding midpalate. Super lean and delicious. Time ahead but great now.

Mar 13th, 2024Sappy and vital. Gorgeous soft opening. Still quite young and with a way to go. Very pretty. Loads of dense and delicious fruit. Needs time to unfurl. Very, very good substance

Mar 15th, 2023Great! Still very young with apparent oak, but so seductive at this stage. A real “power without weight” wine and in a way, almost an antithesis of the Roty. Red fruit dominated, with flowers, spices, heaps of minerality, and traces of meat. Powerful, especially in Rousseau-sense, yet so elegant and pure with lacy textures and superb salinity. Boah! I really did love the minerality here. Drinking so well now, but will take some time before it hits its peak (NB: the mind-bending 76’ Beze we had a few months back is surely proof).
