Domaine Armand Rousseau, nestled in the heart of Gevrey-Chambertin, stands as one of the most revered and storied estates in Burgundy. Founded in the early 20th century and now under the careful hand of Éric Rousseau, the domaine cultivates its vineyards with a profound respect for tradition and nature. Their approach is one of subtlety and restraint, allowing the voice of the terroir to emerge, as though each vine were an instrument in a delicate symphony. The wines from Rousseau are known for their finesse and poise, capturing the essence of each vintage while quietly echoing the history of this revered region. Rousseau’s creations transcend the temporal world, their fine-grained tannins and vibrant acidity recalling the work of Gothic cathedrals, standing tall and refined for centuries.

The 2011 Gevrey Chambertin is understated, almost meditative, with a calmness that feels shaped by time itself. With the stillness of a quiet afternoon, each subtle tone becomes more vivid. This wine carries soft notes of red fruit and gentle spices, balanced by earthy undertones that ground its lighter elements. The structure is delicate yet firm, with a fine acidity that lifts the wine, while a gentle finish lingers like the fading light of day.

Domaine Armand Rousseau wines are pre-sale with expected arrival of end of year.
