Armand Rousseau Chambertin Clos de Beze 1998 750mL

Remarkably forward and earthy for the vintage with obvious and seductive spice notes and round, rich, full-bodied, powerful flavors that offer plenty of punch and a long, classy, vibrant finish. There is good structure here though it is completely buried and while not invisible, very well integrated. A strong wine for this vintage. - Burghound, tasted (3/2004)
