Allen Meadow - Burghound
Allen Meadow - Burghound
(4-2004) The '97 Clos de la Roche displays stunning elegant, not overly ripe red and black pinot fruit aromas but the barely medium weight flavors, while nicely complex and very pretty, are lighter than they should be compared to classic examples of this appellation. There is however good length but the overall impression is rather one of grand cru complexity and elegance with premier cru weight.

Domaine Armand Rousseau

Domaine Armand Rousseau was founded at the beginning of the 20th century by Armand Rousseau. The estate comprises over 15 hectares of vineyards, including 8.5 hectares of Grand Crus and 3.8 hectares of Premier Crus, cultivated using sustainable farming practices. The vineyard soils are limestone and clay-limestone.

Domaine Armand Rousseau produces six emblematic Burgundy Grand Crus: Chambertin, Charmes-Chambertin, Chambertin-Clos de Bèze, Ruchottes-Chambertin, Mazis-Chambertin, and Clos de la Roche.

The wine aging process is done in 100% new oak barrels for Chambertin-Clos de Bèze. Clos Saint Jacques is aged in 70% to 100% new oak barrels depending on the vintage. All other Grand Crus are aged in one-wine barrels. The barrels come from Allier forests and are medium-toasted. The aging period lasts 20 months, during which two rackings are performed. Bottling generally takes place in April after a light plate filtration to preserve the delicate fruit of Pinot Noir. The bottling is done by gravity, directly from the barrels after blending.

The wines from Domaine Armand Rousseau are long-aging: 15 years for the Premier Crus and 20 years for the Grand Crus.
