Vinous - Neal Martin (93)
The 2021 Gevrey-Chambertin Lavaux Saint-Jacques 1er Cru has another impressive bouquet from this flight with bolder yet delineated and vivacious red fruit that leaps from the glass. Real energy and focus here. The palate is medium-bodied with fleshy ripe pliant tannins that frame the mineral-driven red fruit. Plenty of vigour and tension throughout this Gevrey-Chambertin; it feels detailed and sapid on the finish, urging you back for more. I was lukewarm about this from barrel and, as I suspected and wrote back then, it has gained weight and warrants a higher score. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.HK$5,880.00 -
(1x75cl) 2006Vinous (87-89)
(these vines average more than 50 years of age) Pale, bright red. Aromatic nose combines red cherry, rose petal and mint. Supple and pretty, with lovely purity and moderate density to the red fruit and floral flavors. Offers nice balance and a light touch. Finishes with firm tannins and lingering perfume.HK$7,250.00 -
(1x75cl) 2007Vinous (87-89)
Good bright medium red. Reduced aromas of red fruits and flowers. Silky on entry, then tight in the middle palate, with a medicinal austerity and underlying stoniness giving the wine a firm edge. The red cherry flavor is complicated by a whiff of game. Usually it's the Lavaux that's more minerally and hard, notes Eric Rousseau, who points out that this cuvee features the highest average vine age of the domain.HK$7,250.00 -
(1x75cl) 2008Vinous (87-89)
Bright medium red. Wilder, slightly reduced aromas of strawberry, raspberry and game. Silky in texture, at once broader and less delineated than the Lavaux. A distinctly more sauvage wine with more volume and tannic presence. This is from old vines, notes Eric Rousseau, adding that the Lavaux includes some young vines that give that wine more sucrosite and elegance.HK$7,250.00 -
(6x75cl) 2010Vinous (90-92)
The2010 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Cazétiers shows lovely fleshiness and depth in its intensely perfumed layers of fruit. The aromas and flavors are woven together beautifully through to the long, polished finish.HK$86,225.00 -
Vinous (88-90)
Good deep red with ruby highlights. Dark raspberry and licorice on the nose, complicated by musky herbs, menthol, leather and game. Then less sweet and more medicinal in the mouth than the Lavaux, displaying distinctly darker flavors. In a more masculine style, finishing with tougher tannins. The vines here average 55 years of age, making them the oldest of the estate.HK$7,090.00 -
(1x75cl) 2013Vinous (91-93)
Violets, lavender, menthol and blue/purplish-hued fruits emerge from the 2013 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Cazetiers. Deep, pliant and exceptionally polished, the Cazetiers comes across as impeccably balanced today. Lifted aromatics balance the sumptuous fruit in an expressive, textured Cazetiers long on finesse.HK$6,560.00 -

(1x75cl) 2014Wine Spectator (95)
Fragrant aromas of rose, cherry, sandalwood and sweet baking spice announce this polished, elegant red, whose intense flavors build nicely to the long finish, with a mineral element coming in on the aftertaste. A touch heavy on grip and oak presence now, but this shows terrific potential. Best from 2021 through 2040.HK$6,820.00 -

(6x75cl) 2015Vinous (90-92)
Full medium red. A bit more medicinal on the nose than the Lavaux, without quite as much lift. Then creamy but classically dry in the middle, with its strawberry and raspberry fruit flavors a bit shortened on the back end by rather strong tannins for a young Rousseau wine. Fuller-bodied than the Lavaux Saint-Jacques but a bit musclebound today.HK$37,465.00 -
(6x75cl) 2016Jancis Robinson (17)
The average vine age is 40 years, now that they have replanted some. Floral and broad on the nose. Seems relatively light, with charming raspberry fruit but an undertow of strict structure that should keep it going for many a year. Seems light today. Good violet flavours and energy on the end.HK$42,205.00 -

The 2017 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Cazetiers 1er Cru is already showing a little maturity on the rim, possibly due to assiduous stem addition. The nose is open-knit and soft with brambly red fruit, perhaps needing a bit more delineation. The palate is sweet and candied on the entry and quite fleshy in style, with moderate acidity and a dash of white pepper. Plenty of extraction here. This just needs to develop a tad more tension and terroir expression on the finish. Otherwise it displays immense breeding. Tasted blind at the Burgfest 2017 tasting.HK$40,090.00 -
Vinous (93-95)
The 2018 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Cazetiers 1er Cru has a very composed bouquet of darker fruit than the Lavaux Saint-Jacques; there are also hints of blood orange and tangerine here. The palate is medium-bodied with very fine tannins and superb acidity. Quite saline in the mouth, displaying real complexity and nuance toward the finish. Superb.HK$6,510.00 -

(1x75cl) 2020Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (93-96)
Excellent weight of purple, there is more energy to the fruit, a superb freshness, little points of alpine fruit, greater volume and intensity than Lavaux, floral notes, complex and really fine. The young vines are now included which Cyrielle thinks helps bring out more minerality.HK$5,625.00 -

Vinous - Neal Martin (90)
The 2021 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Cazetiers 1er Cru is quite high-toned on the nose with just a bit more volatile acidity compared to its peers. It feels a little Grenache-like. The palate is well balanced with a supple opening, though a bit monotone and missing the amplitude of its peers. This is an easygoing 1er Cru that needs to muster more complexity and personality. The Domaine produced better wines in this vintage. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting.HK$5,625.00 -

The 2005 Gevrey-Chambertin captures the richness of the year in its pliant, open personality. Wonderfully dense and expressive, especially for a village-level wine, the 2005 is drinking beautifully today. Worn-in leather, spices, tobacco and dried dark cherries meld into the succulent, expressive finish. This is a terrific village-level offering from Rousseau.HK$34,385.00 -
(12x75cl) 2006Wine Advocate (87)
The Rousseau 2006 Gevrey-Chambertin displays a fascinating and unusual aromatic melange of wood smoke, cola, cherry, and cocoa powder. While relatively light in color and body, it is brashly smoky and bitter sweet in finish, as well as downright refreshing. Eric Rousseau's own litany of its virtues – not an unfamiliar one among growers this vintage, or among Rousseau's comments on his other 2006s – is equilibrium, vivacity, and finesse. I would recommend placing it at table based on its particular virtues, and doing so within the next 3-4 years ,although, naturally, this and other Rousseau 2006s might make a fool of me with its stamina.HK$58,235.00 -

The 2009 Gevrey-Chambertin is pure silk on the palate. Layers of flavor emerge gracefully from this weightless, totally refined wine. A model of understated elegance, the Gevrey makes a great introduction to the wines of Eric Rousseau. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2021.HK$4,740.00 -
Burghound (88-91)
There is a touch of reduction to the nose that takes out the top part of the red berry fruit and earth aromatic profile. There is a restrained character to the cool and pure flavors that are supported by notably fine-grained tannins on the clean, balanced and ever-so-mildly austere finish. Drink: 2017+HK$3,905.00 -

The 2012 Gevrey-Chambertin is soft, silky and delicate on the palate. Sweet red berries, mint and floral notes meld together nicely in the glass. Today the 2012 is solid, if not quite the overachiever it can be.HK$7,195.00 -

The 2014 Gevrey-Chambertin from Armand Rousseau showcased the beauty of this true Burgundy lover’s vintage. It offered crisp, delineated raspberry and wild strawberry fruit laced with sous-bois. The palate displayed exquisite balance, obviously endowed with less concentration than the equivalent 2015 or 2016, yet nimble and lithe, and so precise and detailed on its carefree finish that you could easily misconstrue this as a premier cru. Wonderful.HK$22,710.00
Burgundy is Pinot Noir’s spiritual home, and nowhere in the world better illustrates terroir than here. Two vineyards side by side result in wines with subtle yet intricate differences in structure and aromatic profile – and often not so subtle differences in price.
