2010 Domaine Armand Rousseau Père et Fils Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Clos St. Jacques

Pinot Noir more

9/24/2018 - m_arcon Likes this wine: 98 points

The 2010 Clos St. Jacques is the real deal and another proof why those wines are that rare and expensive. It’s the (nearly) perfect combination of pure elegance, tension, focus but also power combined with an incredible drinkability. Dancing on the red fruit, grapefruit and some herbs back and forth and flowing down the throat like water. A truly great wine and definitely Grand Cru level imo. Nothing more to add.

Utterly spectacular from the first sniff to the last taste. Incredible depth and purity of fruit. Completely seamless. Powerful and concentrated with no heaviness. Everything is in the right place. Nothing to nitpick, there's just no doubt. Benchmark.

Very young and still juicy fruit dominated.
We actually tasted this blind and the prediction was for 10yr old cool climate Pinot from California but from a “classical” producer like Domaine de la Cote.
Juicy rich red fruits courtesy of the 2009 vintage and frankly the wine felt like it needed another 15yrs plus to get into its proper stride and beauty. Maybe a 91 now but really unless one loves young juicy fruit this should be tucked away for many summers .

A private tasting and dinner (Restaurant Fitzgerald *, Rotterdam, NL): Powerful and complete and youthful, spicy and gamey, perhaps a bit muffled - or is it the comparison with the extremely fragrant DRC Richebourg 2000 which accompanied it? Wonderful balance and freshness, lively and elegant, wonderful weight of blue and black fruit, perfect charge of tannins, long and refined finish.

I was surprised by how expressive this was tonight at this young age. Fruit is so pure and ripe, soft and elegant, just an incredibly giving and juicy wine that is unbelievably delicious. Will become even more special with more time in the bottle, but I enjoyed it tremendously tonight.

Top 1er Cru Burg by Benchmark Producers (Imperial Treasure Fine Teochew Cuisne @ Tanjong Pagar Center): Opened a night before.
Serving at around 940pm.

A good decision to open this overnight as it did show well tonight. This is holding up well being served after the Roumier Amoureuses, with its distinctive Gevrey identity. Similar to the 2012 vintage, but dare I say, a turbocharged version!
It has this extra dimension from the passion fruit like freshness on the nose. It shows the structure and power of 2010 but already very complete. Super length with lingering salinity which I really adore. Wow!

3/23/2013 - thomasito2001 Likes this wine: 95 points

LPV -Oslo. 3-4h in decanter. Was tasted together with 2007 Roumier Amoureuses in a very interesting opposition of style (Terroir and Winemaker). The nose was deep and pure, amazing black fruit purity but appeared less changing than the Amoureuses and somewhat obscured by vanilla/roast even though intensity was superior. Palate was fantastic, still dense and light (as opposed to Roumier) but more spherical, bigger volume and longer persistence but from very refined and cleverly worked material. Excellent length. Great wine without a question, but I found the oak treatment a bit overwhelming and can't help thinking the wine would have been a tad better with more moderate handling?

The 2005 Clos St. Jacques from Armand Rousseau is still a very young wine, but its benchmark quality is clear. Stunning aromas of strawberry, raspberry, blood orange, peony, sous bois, woodsmoke, cedarwood and coco powder burst from the glass. On the palate, the wine is strikingly complete and multidimensional, with crystalline purity and a beautifully balanced marriage of breadth and brightness and an endless finish. If it were not for the wine's ineffable balance one might be tempted to call it decadent, but its poise is too perfect for that. A great Clos St. Jacques.

Initially just all power. Densely packed red fruit, black tea. With more air, the fruit mellows, a sandalwood note comes out. Well balanced acidity and structure. Certainly more on the power side of the equation, but can see the evolution potential. Great stuff.

An evening with wine geeks (@Private location, Frankfurt): Glass: Gabriel Gold
Tasted blind. Beautiful, glowing color.
Awesome nose, pure velvet aromas, very multi-layered, deep and complex. Spices, blood, red fruit. You can sell this as perfume!
On the palate it is nearly perfect! Awesome acidity, perfectly integrated. Silky, ripe tannin. 13,5% abv. Wonderful clear, precise red fruit, some beautiful floral notes and a great mineral core. Silky texture. Amazing elegance and balance. Extremely complex wine but also so delicious and joyful to drink, that I could easily drink the whole bottles in an hour! Has decades ahead and will get even better. What a GREAT WINE! 96-97

2017 Villa d’Este Wine Symposium - Kelly and Kevin's excellent adventure; 11/9/2017-11/14/2017 (Villa D’este, Lake Como and Milan): The most elegant, pure, balanced and enjoyable wine of the CSJ flight. Beautifully perfumed nose displaying raspberry water, crushed blackberry, rose, exotic spices, sesame and strong limestone. Perfectly harmonious palate, airy and weightless, so finely layered subtle red fruit, bright acidity, incredibly mineral and a seamless subtle red fruit and sesame driven finish. The palate to die for, simply ethereal. Can a seven year red Burgundy be drinking perfectly? For me, yes!

Expressive nose of whole cluster, cured meat, spices. Volume is great here considering the vintage, no measly 2011 palate. Same with the 11 Clos de Beze side by side which has even more density but is also much more closed. There is a nice green streak here in the Chambertin coming from whole clusters. If you are a DRC, Dujac drinker, you will love this. Young, best after 2023. 96-97

Nose is very fine, quite clean for the vintage, with minerals and flint showing, deep red fruit, ripe strawberries, some animal and meaty tones, some earth and firewood.
Palate is surprisingly balanced for a 2009, rather clean and fresh, with sweet darker raspberry fruit, ripe strawberries, earthy and quite lush, still with some acidity present to somewhat balance the whole package.
I believe that we have a 2009 that might actually end up really fine with more time?
This is much better balanced than the 2009 Rousseau Le Chambertin I had a while back.

Winos' excellent adventure in France; 6/22/2017-6/27/2017 (All over France): Sweet pure black fruits, blackberry, black cherry, a hint of strawberry jam, rose and limestone. Excellent concentration, round but cool and silky, very good acidity, a hint of mineral, very fine tannins and a long pure black fruit driven finish. I mention to Frederic that the quality of Ruchottes has been really improving and he agrees that it is getting very close to Clos St Jacques in quality. Really nice showing.

Drank side-by-side with 17' Rousseau Lavaux St. Jacques. The 18' CSJ was more approachable and overall drank better than the 17', but both wines were showing quite young compared to the 14' Mugnier Amoureuses and the 16' Bizot Bourgogne also on the table. Lovely wine, will be better with time.

This was a wonderful positive surprise vs expectations for the vintage (I really do not love 18 red burgs from previous experiences). This wine was accesssible - in fact it was wide open to my surprise, soft (!) even and measured (drank like the 13.5 pct alcohol it had on the label). I would say that compared to a 19 CSJ had a year prior a case in point where I prefer the 18 version at this early juncture as it's less alcoholic and mighty. The wine developed beautifully in the glass and we savoured it over dinner with the last glass being the best.

Light red, complex nose, a stunning nose, nose of the Easter Sunday Burgundy grand Cru lunch - every one of the 5 were very good, silky tannins allowed early access, among the 5 grand crus this was on another level, young still but delicious, out of this planet! ethereal, wine of the day!

A private dinner (Restaurant d'Oude Schuur, Sint-Martens-Latem, Belgium): Tasted blind. A marvellous marriage between the richness of the vintage and the elegant, delicate house style, sich a refined interpretation of the ripe year, fragrant flowers and black fruit, hint of smoky black tea, cool minerality, so precise and layered, grand vin, attractive already but needs time.

Oh my my - it’s been a couple of years since I tasted this last and it is most certainly developing how I had hoped it would. Still young and slightly reticent on the nose, this nevertheless shows gorgeously pure and amazingly deep fruit, game, and leather. Similar on the palate which is super impressive for its cohesion and length. This is surprisingly accessible early and though it’s years from peak, this is just so unreservedly excellent now. Wow, gorgeous. I wish I could drink large quantities of this, often.

2019s are hot but they are drinking well young still. I am still deciding if i love the vintage long term as 14.5% alcohol here is something that makes me nervous and question is if it's what I want in Burgundy. This wine today is a enormous fruit bomb of satin like deep red sweet exuberance that still offers some minerality to balance it and not make it vulgar. But it's a hot wine this much is clear. Worked better in the Conterno glass than Zalto Burg I felt.
