Salon Ficofi Paris walkabout tasting and dinner, no detailed tasting notes. From MAG. Still quite primary, dark fruit, oak spice, polished palate. Will need more complexity for a higher score. Very aromatic, elegant, multi layered spice. Great potential.

In an unusual pairing with a 1990 Tertre Roteboeuf which was more charming, with greater substance and flavor, and the preference of all in the group. However as I find with Bordeaux and Burgs, the TR was essentially the same drink on every sip, while the Rousseau was a kaleidoscope of flavors and ever changing….certainly more intellectually stimulating after the first 30 minutes even if the fruit appeared thin by comparison (94+)

Excellent detail and balance of red and dark fruits…very harmonious already. Reminds me of the 10 in those ways when it was young, though I’d call this riper and not as mineral laden. Excellent way to enjoy Rousseau style without completely breaking the bank (94-95)

Rousseau Charmes-Chambertin 2016. Mer ungdommelig, enda mer fokus på parfymert toppfrukt. Renere blir det ikke. Munnfølelsen er like myk som vår Herre listende rundt i silketøfler. Ungdommelig klar frukt av topp kvalitet. Supert løft, samt en renhet og eleganse man ikke ser ofte. Konsentrert, frisk og balansert. Meget lang presis ettersmak med de fineste tanniner. Stor nytelse. 94-95p

Rousseau Charmes-Chambertin GC 2016 Nydelig parfymert og masse spice. Pen dybde. Passe sexy greier det her. Ren fløyel i munn - fantastisk tekstur. Silkeføre. Nydelig frukt - Rousseau stråler i 16. Sett deg ned - slapp av og nyt. Lang smooth finish med silketanniner. Elsker denne. 94p
