This collection from Quebec is full of Burgundian Grand Cru and Tuscan classics. The consignor stored his wine in a temperature- controlled professional home cellar. The wines were purchased on release.
The score for 2002 Domaine Armand Rousseau Ruchottes Chambertin Clos des Ruchottes Monopole Grand Cru is 95 from Robert Parker and the tasting note - The 2002 Clos des Ruchottes was one of the standout wines, despite it being first poured at this epochal vertical. Even returning to my glass after two hours, it continued to unfold and bedazzle. It has an utterly fragrant bouquet with fresh raspberry, creme de cassis, violets and incense that is verging on hypnotic. There is brilliant delineation, of course. The palate is medium-bodied with perfectly judged acidity, a shimmering sense of poise and purpose, and stunning mineralite toward the finish. Utterly divine, I would be stacking my cellar to the rafters with this if I could still afford it.
