Saturday, July 22, 2017 - It's difficult to approach such an esteemed wine without bias, but in this vintage I don't think Rousseau hit it out of the park. Maybe in time this will come together nicely as some other lesser vintages have done so. Today, this struck me as a good but not great wine, a bit heavy on the cherry note sort of monotone. Always an honor to drink a Rousseau Chambertin, though this vintage is a pass for me.
