and assorted meaty

la crème de la crème

The 1998 Comtes de Champagne is a different story altogether

2016 Gevrey-Chambertin, Les Cazetiers, 1er Cru, Domaine Armand Rousseau, Burgundy brandy and assorted meatyThe Cazetiers may be the most underrated wine in the Rousseau cellar, and its appreciably superior to the Lavaux. Notes of peony, rose petal, griotte cherry and grilled meat precede a full bodied, multidimensional and complete wine with lovely mid palate volume and sappiness. This is ample and generous, but dont discount its capacity to age for two decades. Drinking Window 2026 2050. Decanter
