Ruchottes Chambertin Clos des Ruchottes 1993 Armand Rousseau

Professionelle Bewertungen

Jancis Robinson (18.50)

Star bright ruby. Very fruity nose that was initially less complex than the Dujac Charmes 1993 served alongside. But it opened out to become delightfully sweet, precise and whistle-clean with just a suggestion of the lightest grainy tannins still. Very rich and dense with the merest hint of gaminess. (JR)

It always amazes me how sometimes you can run across a wine multiple times over the years and sometimes it's as though there was next to nothing made in the first place. In this particular case, I last had the '93 Rousseau Ruchottes in 1996 and suffice it to say that it has changed greatly to now display full-on sous-bois, spice, leather, game and distinct sauvage hints. There is a lovely sense of underlying tension to the delicious, detail and mineral-driven middle weight flavors that deliver excellent length on the complex, balanced and still somewhat austere finale. This is still full of life and a wine that should continue to hold well
