Burgundy | 1 | 93-96 (IB) | HK$7,260.00 | |||||
Jasper 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. |

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. |

Vinous (90)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. |

Wine Advocate (90)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. |

Burgundy | 1 | 88-91 (BH) | HK$3,935.00 | |||||
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+ |

Vinous (89-91)Bright medium red, a bit darker than the Gevrey-Chambertin Clos du Château. Darker, spicier and more complex on the nose, conveying a suggestion of Brochon power. A step up in energy and clarity as well, offering lovely density and cut to its raspberry and spice flavors. Finishes classically dry, firmly structured and long. As impressive an early showing as I can recall for this village wine chez Rousseau. |

Wine Advocate (91+)Tasted from bottle, Rousseau's 2016 Gevrey-Chambertin Village opens in the glass with a youthfully reserved bouquet of wild berry fruit, plums, peonies and orange rind mingled with suggestions of forest floor and cedar. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, supple and sapid, with lively acids, good depth at the core and fine structuring tannins that subtly assert themselves on the finish. Even this communal bottling—which contains declassified premier cru fruit—is quite introverted at this stage, and readers with bottles in their cellars are advised to forget them for the better part of a decade. |

Vinous (88-90)The 2017 Gevrey-Chambertin Village offers brambly red berry fruit on the nose, hints of crushed stone that percolate through with aeration. The palate is more cohesive and fleshier than the Clos du Château: tart red berry fruit, black pepper and a light sous-bois note on the finish. This should be approachable after two or three years. I find this a step ahead of the Clos du Château this year. |

Jancis Robinson (17)Cask sample. A bit more focused than the Clos du Château on the nose. Gentle and sweet. Really very charming again with good breadth of fruit and a gentle, surely universal, appeal. Compared with Clos du Château, this has a little more obvious tannin on the end. |

Vinous (89-91)The 2020 Gevrey-Chambertin Village has a little more intensity and lifted compared to the Clos du Château, a touch more mineralité too. The palate is very well balanced, quite juicy and ripe but over excessively. Dark berry fruit laced with spice and it fans out wonderfully on the finish. Lovely. |

Wine Advocate (86-88)The 2014 Gevrey Chambertin Clos du Château has a pretty red cherry and strawberry nose that is in keeping with the Rousseau style. The palate is crisp and lively, with fine tannin but not immense weight, but it is fresh on the tart cherry finish. Note that it has not been decided if this will be released or not. It sounds as if it will and it deserves to be, as it is keeping with the Rousseau style. |

Vinous (87-89)Good bright red. Lovely perfumed aromas and flavors of red cherry and rose petal. Sappy and creamy on the palate--in fact almost voluptuous for a young Rousseau wine--but without quite the delineation or distinction of the following samples I tasted here. Finishes juicy and spicy. These vines belong to the Château de Gevrey-Chambertin, which was purchased by a Chinese businessman in 2012. Rousseau has been managing the vineyards while the château itself is being restored. He pulled up the oldest vines here (80 years of age) this year for replanting but the remaining plants still average 60 years of age. |

There is a wealth of great French wine outside the ‘Big 4’ (Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and Rhone). The Languedoc Roussillon with it’s herby, robust Mediterranean reds, Provence with its pale, vinous roses, Loire with its flinty Sauvignons, crunchy Cabernet Francs, and endlessly fascinating Chenins, Jura with its old fashioned curiosities… the list goes on. Tradition and terroir are the veins running through them all, making French wines still the most emulated in the world.
