Domaine Armand Rousseau 阿曼

★
Armand Rousseau 被稱為「香貝丹之王」，身為 Gevrey Chambertin 村莊最具代表性酒廠之一，地位有如 Vosne Romanee 村莊的 DRC，其出名的頂級酒 2005 Chambertin 與 2005 Romanee-Conti 同樣榮獲 Burghound 99高分。
Armand Rousseau 幾乎坐擁 Gevrey 村內所有最知名的葡萄園。在其擁有的14公頃地中，特級葡萄園就佔了8.1公頃，反而是村莊級地塊佔地最小，僅2.2公頃，不知羨煞多少人。其中最知名的當是頂級園 Chambertin和 Chambertin Clos de Beze，在此兩名酒之下則是品質媲美頂級園的一級酒 Clos St Jacques，擁有深沉的口感與清雅的酸度。Armand Rousseau 並未釀造 Bourgogne，唯一的一款村莊等級的 Gevrey Chambertin 即是酒廠的入門酒款。

2013 Domaine Armand Rousseau Père et Fils Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Clos St. Jacques

Note: from a 2.2 ha parcel raised in 70% new wood

Tasting note: This is notably ripe with its expressive and attractively cool nose of black cherry and raspberry, earth, floral and discreet spice elements. The palate impression is impressively rich with excellent volume along with plenty of the hallmark minerality suffusing the sleek, refined and gorgeously long if markedly firm finish. This terrific effort displays a really lovely interplay between power and finesse and I particularly like the harmony of structural elements.
