Tasting notes for the Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru 1967

  • EYE: The hue of this Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru 1967 displays an evolved ruby tone, indicating remarkable maturity. Delicate garnet nuances add a subtle visual complexity. The liquid's crystalline clarity attests to meticulous aging, confirming the quality of this vintage.
  • NOSE: The aromatic bouquet provides a fascinating olfactory experience. Dominant aromas of ripe cherry and blackberry, complemented by discreet floral notes, create a highly interesting perfumed harmony. Touches of leather patina and undergrowth add an earthy dimension to the wine, emphasizing the richness and depth of this Burgundy grand cru.
  • MOUTH: Balanced and carefully evolved structure. Subtly present tannins lend a velvety texture to the whole. Well-integrated acidity imparts persistent freshness during the tasting. The palate reveals concentrated flavors of red and black fruits, while nuances reminiscent of tobacco and truffle add a delicate complexity.

 

In short: This Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru 1967 from Armand Rousseau promises an unforgettable tasting experience. This venerable vintage still boasts a potential aging capacity estimated between 20 and 25 years. To accompany such a monumental wine, consider refined dishes such as pigeon with lingonberries, a sautéed wild mushroom medley, a filet de bœuf Rossini, or a nice selection of aged cheeses.

Family estate in Gevrey-Chambertin

 

In 1902, young Armand, 18 years-old at the time, inherited his first parcels of Gevrey-Chambertin, in the Côte de Nuits. Coming from a long line of wine makers and wine sellers from Burgundy, Armand Rousseau decided to follow the family traditions and developed his newly acquired grape vines. Things accelerated after his marriage in 1909, when he ended up with a bigger vineyard, as well as an entire estate which now bore his name.

Flash-forward to the 1930s. The Domaine Armand Rousseau was now selling its own wines, thanks to the input of Raymond Baudoin (the founder of the famous French magazine "Revue du Vin de France"). Armand was now producing as well as selling other appellations: Chambertin, Charmes-Chambertin, Clos de la Roche, or Clos Saint-Jacques. He even started exporting to the USA, which just came out of 13 years of Prohibition.

In 1959, Charles Rousseau (Armand's son) inherited the estate when his father died. He had previously worked with him for 15 years and was now at the helm of the 6 hectares vineyard. Charles decided to make it grow it by adding more parcels like Clos de Bèze and Clos des Ruchottes. He aimed for the outside world and decided to export his wines in Europe and the rest of the planet, especially Asia since the 1970s.

Charles enjoyed the assistance of his son Éric, who began helping his dad in 1982, after he finished his oenology studies at the University of Dijon. Thanks to him, the Domaine Armand Rousseau had discovered organic winemaking. No more pesticides, mechanical plowing, high interventionism... This respect for nature and family traditions, Éric is now teaching it to his daughter Cyrielle. The new generation of Rousseau.
