Written Notes

The 1980 Rousseau Chambertin Clos de Beze had a great nose full of tender red fruits, cobwebs and a touch of tropical banana. There was some sweaty, barny complexity here, and autumnal flavors first emerged on the palate. It had a smooth, gritty finish but the Roumier definitely smacked it down WWE style. Big Boy admired the ‘seductive, come take me’ nose, but also found the palate to be ‘a bunch of pieces, none of it comes together.’ Well said, but the age and randomness of the Jero factors often add up incorrectly. I had a better bottle recently (93J).
