Domaine Armand Rousseau is one of Burgundy’s premier producers, inspiring awe in the fine wine world. Each vintage is highly sought after.

The domaine was established at the turn of the last century by Armand Rousseau, who began with a small inheritance of vineyards in Gevrey Chambertin and expanded through marriage.

Today, the domaine is renowned for producing some of the world's most prized wines. They own around 15 hectares of Pinot Noir vines in Gevrey-Chambertin and Morey-St-Denis, including six grands crus. Their significant holdings of Chambertin have been acquired over nearly 90 years. Currently, Cyrielle Rousseau continues the legacy of her predecessors, adhering to a simple yet highly effective approach: sensible yields from predominantly old vines in prime locations, traditional winemaking techniques, and an immediate taste of precision and excellence.

Crafted from Pinot Noir grapes grown in the prestigious Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru vineyard in Burgundy, France, this red wine is a true testament to Armand Rousseau's legacy of excellence. The 2021 vintage is characterized by its incredible depth and concentration, showcasing the unique character of this revered appellation. On the palate, it's silky smooth with perfectly balanced tannins and a long, lingering finish.

This exceptional Charmes-Chambertin is drinking beautifully now but also promises immense aging potential, evolving gracefully for decades to come - a must have for your cellar.
