Armand Rousseau Gevrey Chambertin 1er Cru Lavaux St. Jacques 2015 A000001438 The 2002 Cabernet Sauvignon Herb

The 2002 Cabernet Sauvignon Herb Lamb Vineyard is a wonderful wine on its own merit

and great richness

this wine is the most fluid and changing

The mid-palate of the broad-shouldered flavors is pliant yet intense and muscular while the driving finish possesses breathtakingly good depth and persistence on the imposingly structured but not really rigid or unduly austere finale

A much more floral-inflected nose is equally fresh and ripe with a broader range of spice elements adding breadth to the pretty red and blue pinot fruit aromas that are trimmed in noticeable if not invasive wood
