{"product_id":"rousseau-clos-de-la-roche-2019-750ml","title":"Armand Rousseau Clos De La Roche 2019 750ML","description":"\u003cp\u003eIt is a minerally, complex, and powerful wine, with an abundance of red berry fruit aromas with a hint of thyme and mint. In the mouth, the wine shows true elegance, with spicy, smooth tannins and a hint of tobacco. A long finish with a great consistency and a certain firmness rounds out this incredible wine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e Producer Description:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDomaine Armand Rousseau ranks with Romanée-Conti, Leflaive, Jacques Prieur, and a small handful of names that are the stuff of Burgundy legend. These domaines produce impeccable quality wines from vintage to vintage, and consistently place Burgundy at the top of the wine world.\n\nEach of the domaine’s prestigious holdings is in Gevrey Chambertin, with the exception of Grand Cru Clos de la Roche in Morey-St. Denis. The domaine controls a remarkable 8 hectares of Grand Crus, including 6.25 acres in Chambertin and 3.45 in Clos de Bèze. Rousseau owns 5.5 acres in the famed Premier Cru Clos St. Jacques, which accounts for 40% of the total acreage and 100% of the 2.5-acre monopole, Grand Cru Clos des Ruchottes.\n\nIn August 2012, following the purchase of Chateau de Gevrey-Chambertin’s vineyards by its new Chinese owner, Louis Ng Chi-sing, chief operating officer at SJM Holdings in Macau, its management was entrusted to Eric Rousseau of Domaine Rousseau. The five-acre property, which includes the Chateau, is comprised of small plots of the grand cru and premier cru ‘Chambertin’ vineyards, while the balance is Gevrey-Chambertin AOC.\n\nEric Rousseau is adamant that yields should be severely limited to promote faithful expression of the individual vineyard. The wines age in barrel for 18 months before bottling. Rousseau releases its wines exactly two years after the vintage.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Grapes The Wine Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52613144543599,"sku":"20588","price":1099.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0924\/4947\/2879\/files\/20588-armand-rousseau-clos-de-la-roche.gif?v=1789099554","url":"https:\/\/www.grapesthewineco.com\/products\/rousseau-clos-de-la-roche-2019-750ml","provider":"Grapes The Wine Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
