Domaine Armand Rousseau Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru 2014
Reviews
“The 2014 Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru has an elegant red berry bouquet that could disarm you at a hundred paces. This has so much finesse and detail. The palate is taut and crisp, bright, almost lucid red cherry fruit laced with orange zest, leading to a very refined and sustained finish. This is a lovely wine—sensual yet understated.”

The Charmes-Chambertin comprises grapes from two parcels of Charmes-Chambertin appellation and a parcel of Mazoyères-Chambertin. In Burgundy, the word 'Charmes' refers to the ancient communal fields which became abandoned and overgrown. Here, 'Charmes' means 'Straw' or 'Stubble-field'.
Mazoyères got its name from the small sheds built by the vignerons to store their tools. The Mazoyères-Chambertin parcel is of Comblanchien limestone, with a layer of fine gravel originating from the Combe Grisard. The soil of the Charmes Chambertin vineyard is composed of crinoid limestone on the upper slopes and Comblanchien limestone further down. A supple wine; both fine and elegant with cellaring potential of 20 to 30 years.
