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.

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.

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

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?

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.
