Bobs annual wine weekend

Once more with gusto. 25 each of Clos St Jacques and Les Am. The 1999s were killer. Rousseau and Roumier ruled but there were many great wines. Drouhin showed nicely across the board.

missing notes from Jadot and Bruno clair

• 2002 Joseph Drouhin Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Amoureuses 92 Points

  France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru

  All the 02 Amoureuses were young and all will be quite nice, but probably not outstanding. The Drouhin was number 2 in the flight for me, medium color, more fruit ont he nose and was becoming approachable as I finished it

  Most elegant of the flight and after two hours was stellar and could give the Roumier a run for its money

• 2002 Louis Jadot Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Amoureuses

  France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru

  Dark in the glass, a little roasted and syrupy on the back end but evened out over time. Probably just too early to read

• 2002 Domaine G. Roumier / Christophe Roumier Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Les Amoureuses 96 Points

  France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru

  As with the bonnes mares tasting last year, Roumier was the call act of the night, although in Les Am, the competition is closer.
  
  Number one of the flight, medium dark color, young and slightly roasted on the finish, this was incredibly intense and will resolve into a stellar wine in a few years

  Surprisingly open, typical CSJ. Will improve but suffered by being paired with 3 Rousseaus

• 2002 Domaine Armand Rousseau Père et Fils Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Clos St. Jacques 94 Points

  France, Burgundy, Côte de Nuits, Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru

  The three Rousseaus ruled in this flight. The 02 is early, the 01 is balanced and I loved it, the 00 is downright sexy and best to drink tonight. Over time, it will be 02, 01 and 00 I think.
  They are al complex, ripe and elegant in a way that sets his wines above everyone else and rousseau is the reference standard for CSJ. the wines are dense, balanced, earthy with a wild mix of dark and red fruits and the finish goes on forever.

  Rousseau knocked it out of the ballpark in 1993 making some of his best wines ever. The was cleaner, bigger, bright and balanced. This has it all and is a baby 93 chambertin

  Knockout bottle. This is almost as good as white wine gets. Very pure, elegant with an underlying minerality , white flowers and a hit of citrus. Incredible intensity and elegance, multilayered mouthfeel. This is pure and delicious and will last for a long time but drinks amazingly now. Definitely the best Chevalier I have had and tops most Montrachets.
