"Deep garnet core with thin tawny rim. The nose is meaty: gravy on a Sunday roast mixed with bbq sauce! So complex and decadent. The palate is Burgundy at its best: brilliant balance with the freshness most Bordeaux wines can only dream of. Notes of toffee and cooked meats. This wine is so exotic, rich and complex - certainly one of the best Chambertin's I have ever tasted. Drinking now, though this has the tannins to see it through another few years. Rousseau must be the best wine-maker in Burgundy?"

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
Produces the world's most revered Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from a mosaic of tiny, terroir-defined climats. Its hierarchy of village, Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards makes site the ultimate expression of quality.
The Cote de Nuits' largest Grand Cru commune, producing powerful, structured and deeply flavored Pinot Noir built for long aging.
A thin-skinned, terroir-sensitive red producing perfumed, silky and elegant wines of red-berry fruit and earthy complexity. It reaches its apogee in Burgundy.
