earth and tobacco scents open up what seems like an early maturing wine for this chateau

You'll think I'm being stingy

which balances the opulence of 1990 mature Pinot opulence

warm and long finish that has a slightly bitter chocolate character to it

Armand Rousseau, Ruchottes Chambertin Clos Ruchottes other_regions earth and tobacco scents open(20% new wood). A discreet touch of wood frames mildly reduced aromas such that I would strongly advise decanting this if youre going to sacrifice a bottle in the interest of science. There is outstanding delineation and intensity to the refined and pure medium bodied flavors that are shaped by deceptively pliant tannins on the saline inflected finish that seems to be constructed from liquid stone, all wrapped in a wonderfully long and pure finish.
