Armand Rousseau Gevrey-Chambertin Lavaux St. Jacques 1. cru 2014

Domaine Armand Rousseau’s Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Lavaux St. Jacques 2014 is a beautifully poised Burgundy that captures both the finesse of a cooler Premier Cru site and the hallmark elegance of one of the region’s most celebrated domaines. Made from 100% Pinot Noir, it reflects the refined style and pedigree that have made Rousseau a benchmark producer in Gevrey-Chambertin.

Makuprofiili
In the glass, this 2014 shows a bright, clear ruby colour that hints at its freshness and precision. The nose opens with red cherry and raspberry, layered with spice, forest floor, and subtle floral notes, creating an aromatic profile that is both lifted and complex. On the palate, it is medium-bodied with fine tannins and vibrant acidity, giving the wine a graceful tension and a precise, mineral-driven finish. The fruit remains pure and focused throughout, while the long aftertaste leaves impressions of spice and stony depth. This is a wine with excellent ageing potential, and with time in bottle it should gain additional nuance, developing earthy, truffle-like and leathery tones.

Viininvalmistus
Lavaux St. Jacques is a well-regarded Premier Cru vineyard in the cooler, northern part of Gevrey-Chambertin, where limestone-rich soils and a slightly elevated, sheltered position help produce wines with structure, minerality, and elegance. The 2014 vintage benefited from a cool growing season followed by a warm finish, allowing the grapes to ripen gradually while retaining freshness. Domaine Armand Rousseau is known for careful vineyard work and a restrained, terroir-driven winemaking approach, producing Pinot Noir that emphasizes purity, balance, and site expression.

Ruoka & tarjoilu
This wine pairs wonderfully with dishes that echo its elegance and subtle complexity, such as roast duck, game birds, veal, mushroom risotto, or simply prepared lamb. It also works well with earthy, truffle-based dishes and soft cheeses. Serve at around 15–17°C, and consider decanting for 30–60 minutes if drinking young to allow the aromas to open and the tannins to soften.
