97 NM. "This is a glorious Clos St. Jacques, which knocked Rousseau’s Ruchottes into a hat! The bouquet is so perfumed and heavenly with bright red cherries, redcurrant, minerals and wild raspberry. The palate is beautifully defined, the oak still a little prominent but retaining that ethereal weightlessness and poise, with a thread of acidity enlivening the finish. Exquisite, one of Rousseau’s finest ‘05s." Neal Martin, Wine Journal, Jul 2010 |
