Critics Ratings

2008

'Noticeable reduction renders the nose difficult to read but there are distinct animale aromas beneath the funk that can also be found on the robust and tautly muscular medium-bodied flavors that also display an overt minerality on the delicious, firm and complex finish.' - Allen Meadows, Burghound.com, 89-91/100 (Jan 2010)

2009

'The 2009 Gevrey-Chambertin Les Cazétiers presents an attractive core of dark fruit, considerable aromatic complexity and plenty of structure to back things up. Fresh, vibrant notes are woven throughout, adding to an impression of reserved, tense coolness. The Cazétiers is one of the more inward wines at Rousseau in 2009. Drink window 2019 - 2029.' - Antonio Galloni, Vinous.com, 91-93/100 (May 2011)

2010

'Strong reduction flattens the nose but there is excellent verve to the rich, intense and solidly powerful middle weight flavors that display really lovely detail and nuance on the firmly structured and moderately austere finish. I very much like the interplay of the fruit against the structural elements and this should amply reward at least a decade of cellaring. Good juice and worth considering. Drink 2020+.' - Allen Meadows, Burghound.com, 90-93/100 (Jan 2012)
