Échezeaux Grand Cru 1999

The Échezeaux Grand Cru 1999 from Nicolas Potel is an outstanding Burgundy that impressively reflects the elegance and complexity of this renowned Grand Cru vineyard in the heart of the Côte de Nuits. In the glass, the wine presents a deep ruby red color, indicative of its maturity and concentration. The nose reveals a rich and complex bouquet. Initially, ripe red fruits such as cherries and raspberries dominate, complemented by dark berries such as blackberries and blackcurrants. Subtle hints of truffle, undergrowth, and an earthy minerality lend the wine additional depth. Spice notes of cloves, cinnamon, and vanilla, as well as delicate roasted aromas of coffee and tobacco, round out the complex aromatic profile.
On the palate, the Échezeaux 1999 displays an impressive balance between power and finesse. The tannins are supple and well-integrated, giving the wine a silky yet structured texture. The fruit flavors are intense and harmonious, supported by a lively acidity that lends the wine freshness and longevity. Secondary aromas of leather, dried herbs, and a hint of smoke add complexity and reflect the wine's advanced maturity. The finish is long and persistent, with an elegant aftertaste of dark fruit and spicy notes that linger long after the finish.
