Description
Armand Rousseau’s Gevrey-Chambertin Clos St. Jacques 1er Cru 2015 is a standout expression of one of Burgundy’s most revered terroirs, combining precision, depth, and remarkable finesse. From a producer long associated with some of the most collectible wines in the Côte de Nuits, this is a wine that captures both the power of Gevrey-Chambertin and the silky elegance that made Rousseau legendary.
Tasting Notes
In the glass, it typically shows a bright ruby hue with impressive clarity and luminosity. The aromatics are layered and refined, moving from red and dark berries to rose petal, spice, forest floor, and subtle earthy nuance, with the 2015 vintage often bringing a touch of ripe warmth and concentration.
On the palate, Clos St. Jacques is known for its beautiful balance of structure and charm: vivid fruit, fine tannins, and a long, mineral-tinged finish. The wine has excellent aging potential, and while approachable with time in bottle, it is likely to evolve gracefully over many years, gaining greater complexity and savory depth.
Production
Clos St. Jacques is a premier cru site in Gevrey-Chambertin, one of Burgundy’s most distinguished villages, where the vineyards benefit from classic Côte d’Or limestone-rich soils and an ideal east-facing exposure. Domaine Armand Rousseau is known for meticulous vineyard work and careful harvesting to preserve purity and balance, followed by traditional vinification designed to highlight site expression, finesse, and longevity.
Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with refined dishes such as roast duck, pigeon, game bird, lamb, or mushroom-based cuisine, as well as aged cheeses. Serve at around 16–18°C; a gentle decant is recommended when young to allow the aromatics to open, though older bottles are best handled with minimal air.
