The Domaine Armand Rousseau is the largest landholder of the legendary climat of Chambertin with four parcel totalling 2.54 hectares. Their wine has been described as

“a mighty wine, the essence of Chambertin.”

Today the domain has some 15 hectares situated in the appellations of Gevrey-Chambertin and Morey-Saint-Denis, including 8.5 in grand cru climats. The crown jewels are Chambertin and Clos-de-Bèze, with four parcels comprising a total of 2.54 hectares in the former (making Rousseau the largest landholder of Chambertin vines) and three constituting 1.42 hectares in Chambertin-Clos de Bèze. Another standout wine is their 1er cru Clos Saint-Jacques. The traditional practice at Domaine Rousseau is to destem all the grapes with vinification in open stainless-steel vats before the wine is transferred by gravity to the cellar for barrel-aging.
