Armand Rousseau Gevrey Chambertin 1er Cru Lavaux St. Jacques 2015 A000001438 A much more floral-inflected nose

A much more floral-inflected nose is equally fresh and ripe with a broader range of spice elements adding breadth to the pretty red and blue pinot fruit aromas that are trimmed in noticeable if not invasive wood

The mid-palate of the broad-shouldered flavors is pliant yet intense and muscular while the driving finish possesses breathtakingly good depth and persistence on the imposingly structured but not really rigid or unduly austere finale

Generous wood is present on the ultra-fresh and incredibly spicy nose that reflects notes of reserved red berries

savory clove and tobacco elements and beautiful ‘patina’ notes leading to a long finish with subtle mineral accents

although it is a more forceful
