Armand Rousseau Gevrey-Chambertin Lavaux St. Jacques 1. cru 2007

Domaine Armand Rousseau’s Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Lavaux St. Jacques 2007 is a graceful expression of one of Burgundy’s most admired sites. Crafted from Pinot Noir in a cool, refined vintage, it combines clarity, finesse, and the kind of elegance that has made Rousseau a benchmark producer in Gevrey-Chambertin.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, this wine shows a translucent ruby hue typical of mature Pinot Noir. The nose opens with red berries such as raspberry and cherry, lifted by floral notes of rose petals, followed by subtle forest floor, spice, and a touch of earthy minerality. The palate is delicate and poised, with vibrant acidity that keeps the fruit fresh and lively. Fine, well-integrated tannins provide gentle structure, while the silky texture and long finish leave a quiet echo of spice and complexity. It is drinking beautifully now, though its charm lies more in nuance and refinement than in power.

Production
Lavaux St. Jacques is a Premier Cru site in Gevrey-Chambertin known for producing wines of elegance and depth. The 2007 vintage was marked by cooler conditions, which favored fresher profiles, higher acidity, and more delicate fruit expression. Domaine Armand Rousseau is known for careful vineyard work and restrained vinification, allowing the character of the terroir and vintage to show with precision.

Food & Serving
This is an excellent partner for roasted game birds, duck breast, mushroom dishes, veal, or refined preparations of beef. It also works beautifully with aged hard cheeses and truffle-based dishes. Serve at around 16–18°C, and decant gently if you would like to give the wine time to open, though it is already ready to enjoy.
