The 2013 Ruchottes-Chambertin Grand Cru has a very fragrant and pure bouquet with strawberry coulis, Seville orange, limestone and rose-petal scents that is exuberant and focused. The palate is ripe and candied on the entry with fine tannins, superb minerality and a very elegant, refined finish that is quite Mugneret-Gibourg in style. While not the best-known Ruchottes, this is perfect for those that cannot find or afford the "big three" (Roumier, Mugneret-Gibourg or Rousseau).
