The score for 1997 Domaine Armand Rousseau Chambertin Clos de Beze Grand Cru is 92 from Burghound, Allen Meadows and the tasting note - Classic Clos de Bèze spice and abundant warm Gevrey earth notes lead to expressive, rich, medium weight, intense flavors of admirable depth and length and this too has retained a bit of finishing wood. This is a lighter Bèze by the reference standard Rousseau quality but the breed and sheer class are indisputably present. I very much like this wine because it avoids the pitfalls of the vintage and delivers real elegance and a bit more overall harmony than the '97 Chambertin as it is fashioned in a slightly more understated style than is typical chez Rousseau.
