Good volume to the nose, immediate core of juicy black cherry fruit, a cool edge, perfumed forest fruits, pretty crushed blue notes, pinot sap/leaf, coal... wood.
Medium-bodied, fleshy and quite open with a salty/mineral underpinning and frame. Stony earth, more cool feels.
coming back: the nose is absolutely brilliant - blue/black and graphite, black raspberry. Silky and supple on the palate, juicy. ooh!
On return: Very open nose, graphite tinged and redder. Generous, silky and bright, some pepper and earth, crushed raspberry and loganberry... so good! Medium bodied, a firmness but a fine frame, savoury base and broadly mineral and cool. Savoury, clean and pure.
Later on: Woodier and spicier but fresh pour brings back the graphite and red fruits. Medium, smooth and supple, juicy and full of ripe red fruits - with some firmness here and there. Really lovely stuff.
2017s are excellent. This offers great purity and was immediately expressive, developing with each sip. Brilliant bottle.

Rousseau Gevrey-Chambertin 2017. Full pupp rett fra flaska. Pinotsexy. Candyshop og hele pakka. 17 er søtere, frodigere og løsere i fisken. Utrolig deilig å drikke nå. Den har virkelig flotte former. Hvor 16 er mer reservert og intellektuell, så skriker 17 "se på meg - jeg er deilig" Supersmooth. Lang og deilig med fine tanniner. Kantfri - sjarmtroll. 93p
Mulig 16 har større kvaliteter, men i dag vant 17 hårfint på sjarmen.

Lovely village wine from a true top-tier producer. A little closed (and obviously young), so the nose and palate were a little reserved - but still quite enjoyable. The texture of this wine is amazing, so lush, soft, and silky. Would love to try this again in 10 years.
