April 16, 2024 - Heidi's Group: Oh My! (St. Genevieve, Mpls, MN): Medium red color. Opened about 8am and recorked til dinner around 7pm. Drank a glass over 2 hours. This was another crazy good nose. Love the crushed flowers and perfume of cherry and strawberries - just gorgeous red berries here; excellent spice notes with more subtle orange peel and green twigs. The palate is medium bodied, pure and elegant, great tension with striking spices, soft texture and pretty red berries, juicy and so long. Classic Rousseau. What a tandem next to the '10 DRC Echezeaux.

April 16, 2024 - Heidi's Crew at St Geneive Minneapolis "quarterly". CV,KB,LI,SS,CS&DD. Tonight was outstanding & so much so, the group voted to meet monthly going fwd. StG's menu tonight screamed Burgundy so that didn't hurt. Clos des Ruchottes, for me, is the sweet spot in Rousseau's lineup for maximum finesse, terroir expression, purity & value. The Chambertin & Beze are usually a bit better still but, this is my personal all-round fav cuvee. Wish, I could still afford them. So a huge thank you to Lonny for bringing this world class example of red Burgundy at its consistent best. Even more so, coming from 2010 vintage! This was a complete delight in my glass tonight. Elegance, finesse, stunning fruit, spice, mineral, hints of Sous Bois on the horizon and unmatched balance. Somewhat trumped tonight by Siggy's phenomenal 09 DRC Echezeaux. Tonight these 2 btls both showed why wine nuts like Lonny and I get hooked on Burgundy. What a night! 96+

January 8, 2024 - Polished floral aromatics, balanced palate. Slightly rustic finish that detracts.

April 4, 2023 - Gevrey Dinner (Mino Brasserie): Not decanted, drinking well but still very far from peak. Can feel the substance. This vintage chez Rousseau is always edging to be complete, sweet blue fruit, meaty, grassy, ultra lifted, just slightly less complete than the perfect 2010 Rousseau Chambertin (but not so different on first sight). Ruchottes is more feminine, and more immediately elegant at that. Split for my WOTN. 95+
