July 9, 2023 - Tasted with TH Pan. My feelings are very consistent with the other notes posted to date. This was a wine of great levity, ethereal and fresh. Lacking the purity of fruit or the muscular structure one might hope for in such a Gevery. Rather acid forward even after several hours of air.
Someone once drunkenly told me that Rousseau only makes three wines: Chambertin, Beze and CSJ. While at the time I found the comment to be arrogant, I am increasingly guilty of failing to convince myself otherwise. -

December 18, 2022 - Delicate, silky, light ruby color. Cherry, coffee, and tobacco aromas. Moderately more acidic than desirable. Best consumed before long.

January 2, 2022 - Pretty subtle and restrained. More black fruit with a touch of red fruit and a little spice. Pretty and delicate on the palate. Enjoyable but leaves you wanting more.

July 16, 2021 - While not a dazzler, this offered up nice dark berry flavors with a somewhat leaner tighter profile. Good, but not great. Will more time help?

July 14, 2021 - Bastille Day Celebration with Lots of Champagne Rosé (Park Ridge Country Club): Small glass, brief note. Slightly more black vs red cherry here with faint spice and meat notes. Good length, just not quite as forthcoming yet as I would expect, showing a fairly firm middle and finish. Probably needs more time.
