Burgundy's Elite Grand Cru Wines - 1999 Vintage


A particularly hot ripening period in 1999 produced healthy grapes of excellent quality. By harvest time, they had attained optimal ripeness with high sugar levels and moderate acidity. Seductively fruity, well structured and fleshy, the wines of this vintage promise to develop well. They stand out for their purity and exceptional balance. The reds have a lovely robe, strong personality and delicious fruitiness. In the mouth, they are fleshy with fine tannins. The whites are elegant, balanced and set off by excellent acidity.
