Details

Armand Rousseau's 2012 Chambertin Clos de Bèze epitomizes the finesse and elegance of Gevrey-Chambertin. With its deep color and remarkable length on the palate, it stands as a testament to the complexity of this renowned appellation. The nose is a tapestry of aromas, rich and delicate, showcasing an abundance of small black fruits interwoven with hints of oriental spices. On the palate, the wine envelops the senses with its velvety texture and finesse, revealing layers of depth and nuance with each sip. The finish is long and satisfying, leaving a lasting impression of grace and sophistication. This is a wine of unparalleled refinement, a true expression of its terroir and the artistry of its maker.


Robert Parker - 97 Points

"Tasted blind at the annual "Burgfest" tasting in Beaune. The 2012 Chambertin Clos de Bèze Grand Cru has a scintillating, effervescent nose, the new oak beautifully interwoven into the complex red cherry, raspberry and pomegranate scents. There is wonderful definition here. The palate is very well balanced with well judged acidity that cuts a swathe through the structured red berry fruit. This is a serious Clos-de-Bèze reserved for long-term ageing. Quite brilliant."


Antonio Galloni - 95+ Points

"Healthy deep red. Black raspberry, cherry pit, crushed stone and smoky minerals on the almost liqueur-like nose. Large-scaled, very ripe and palate-staining, with creamy flavors of bigarot cherry, coffee and sweet oak dominating. More classically 2012 in style than the tauter Clos Saint-Jacques, finishing with substantial ripe tannins and superb length."
