"Medium-deep color. We readily admit our love for Rousseauâs top wines, and this is a perfect example. The aromas are incredible, complex and rustic. Notes include sweet dark berries, vanilla, leather, spice, smoke, earth, and minerals. Fabulous on the palate as well; great attack, powerful, with flavors of medicinal berries and lingering mid-palate smoke. Hugely extracted, concentrated; a wine of great depth. Best of all, a 90-second finish that exudes Burgundy at its best. Even someone with a palate of stone could tell that this wine is special. Only La TĂąche beat it in our âshow of handsâ voting for 'wine of the night.'"
