Note di degustazione
The 2016 Ruchottes-Chambertin Clos des Ruchottes Grand Cru was one of the standouts of this Rousseau smorgasbord! This has a heavenly bouquet with intense red fruit, crushed stone and incense that gain vigour with every swirl of the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with pliant, fluid tannins. Very harmonious and poised, wonderful density, almost perfectly balanced, this is Rousseau's Ruchottes at its zenith. Fabulous.

(30% new oak): Good medium red. Pure, restrained aromas and flavors of black cherry, licorice and minerals. Silky and fine-grained on entry, then juicy and tighter in the middle, showing strong calcaire energy as the mother rock here isn't much more than a foot below the surface. This rich, firmly tannic wine boasts a long, rising finish featuring black fruits and violet. Impeccably balanced from the start, but this youthfully austere wine will need time in the cellar. The estate is slowly replanting this vineyard, so this 2016 is a mix of old and young vines.
