Lot #118. Armand Rousseau Charmes-Chambertin 2002

Description: Consists of 2 Bottles, 0.75L
Score: 91 JG.
"The 2002 Charmes has turned out quite well indeed in this vintage. The bouquet offers up a fine mélange of strawberries, coffee, grilled meats, red cherries, herb tones, earth and a touch of spice in the upper register. On the palate the wine is medium-full and pure, with good depth in the mid-palate, fine acids, moderate tannins, and excellent length and grip on the finish. This vintage of Charmes seems to have a bit more stuffing than is the norm chez Rousseau, which is especially impressive . . ." John Gilman, View From the Cellar, Bonus Articles, Nov 2003
Provenance: The Sea Cliff Cellar
Lot Location: Orange County
Estimate: $600
