Critic Scores

An even imperial purple. Broad shoulders from the start. Leave it a minute in the glass for the oak to settle down. The wine is only just beginning to show itself, but the massive structure will support the noble deep red fruit magnificently. The complete sense of harmony has been maintained. Just waiting for the fruit to return after spitting and here it comes. Drink from 2035-2045.

The 2023 Chambertin Grand Cru has an exquisite, graceful bouquet with pure black cherries, raspberry and violet scents that soar from the glass. It shows exceptional delineation and focus. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins and very good weight, more muscular than the Clos Saint-Jacques, with firm grip on the finish. This will require time, but there is huge potential.

The 2023 Rousseau Chambertin seems loathe to divulge its secrets; there is a forward, pretty black cherry and plum fruit aroma, but it seems to lack the gamey depth of the Clos St-Jacques and it is not yet showing the voluptuous, sensual nature of the Clos de Bèze. Experience tells us that with time this will blossom, and everything is in the right place, but at least for now it is not as expressive as the other cuvées. Cyrielle Rousseau explains that it takes longer to open because their parcel is at the base of the combe in the cool part of Chambertin.

Rousseau's 2023 Chambertin Grand Cru is lovely, wafting from the glass with aromas of cassis, plums and sweet berry fruit, mingled with notions of licorice, vine smoke and spices. Full-bodied, ample and fleshy, it's unctuous and seamless, with sweet, powdery tannins, succulent acids and an expansive finish.

Cask sample. Dark-mid ruby. Beautiful nose combining deep red fruits (strawberry, red cherry and raspberry), spice and floral notes. The acidity is high-toned but perfectly matched with the finest, integrated tannins and a long, floral finish. Impossibly fine-boned, but perhaps slightly fuller-bodied than others. There is weight. Beautiful and refined.
