Burgundy A Barrel Tasting of Vintage 2016
This was my second time to attend this tasting.
I was really looking forward to this event but on the day, I was feeling sick...
I almost gave up, but couldn't miss the rare opportunity to taste...
Domaine Armand Rousseau Pere & Fils!

Gevrey-Chambertin Clos du Chateau 2016
Cherry blossom, pink rose, cherry and pomegranate.
Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Lavaux St-Jacques 2016
Dark cherry, herb, vanilla cream and freshness of green tea. Fine tannin.
Ruchotte-Chambertin Clos des Ruchottes Grand Cru Monopole 2016
Cut flower, cardamon, juice which spreads when you bite fresh meaty cherry.
Chambertin Clos de Beze Grand Cru 2016
Rose, lavender, cherry and fresh tobacco. Texture is very smooth.
These wines were still young and tight, but aromas and flavors spread out in my mouth once I had a sip.
Beautiful wine. When I tasted them, I was so absorbed and totally forgot that I was sick.
