Gevrey Chambertin Cazetiers, Domaine Armand Rousseau 2012

Tasting Notes

The 2012 Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Cazetiers was raised in second use barrels. It has a very intense bouquet raspberry and wild strawberry scented bouquet that is well-defined, perhaps even a little rustic in style. The palate is medium-bodied with firm and quite masculine tannins. There is plenty of candied red fruit, a palpable sense of solidity and breeding here, but in tandem with finesse. The finish has a drawn out saline element with just the right amount of dryness to urge another sip.
