Producer: Domaine Armand Rousseau, a revered and iconic family-run estate in Gevrey-Chambertin, stands as one of Burgundy's oldest and most esteemed producers. Holding prized grand cru plots, including the sought-after Clos Saint-Jacques premier cru vineyard, Rousseau crafts wines of unparalleled distinction.

Vineyard Notes: The domain owns two parcels within the Clos de Bèze; the larger one is in the upper part of the appellation. Here the soil is stony and has a high limestone content. At the top of the Clos there is a predominance of Bathonien calcerous clay; half-way down this turns to crinodial limestone and marl from the Bajocian age. The stones are spread out unevenly.

Producer Notes: Clos de Bèze is often described as the feminine face of Chambertin, revealing as it does all the elegance and finesse of the Gevrey-Chambertin appellation. The wine is complex with deep colour and a long finish, smooth and of great finesse. The rich aromas are dominated by red berries and oriental spices.
