Note di degustazione
The 1999 Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru is a knockout vintage, surpassing both the '01 and '05 on this occasion. Brilliant, vivacious red cherry and crushed strawberry scents, wonderful mineralité and immense precision. The palate is medium-bodied with svelte tannins, harmonious, pliant and sensual, with a graceful finish that fans out nicely, even if it does not quite "kick on" in the glass like the '01. Tasted at the Méo-Camuzet dinner at Arbor in Hong Kong.

from a bottle opened at the domaine). At ten years of age, this remains quite fresh with a lightly spiced, elegant and pure nose of still largely primary earth-suffused red and dark berry fruit aromas that marry into supple, stylish and delicious medium weight plus flavors that possess mouth coating structure on the linear and moderately austere but impressively long finish. The structural elements are notably firm but well-integrated and the overall impression is one of harmony and as such, this should age gracefully for years.
Very supple, rich and full. Extremely winning already. Broad, full, lovely and alluring. It's so long-flavoured and charming even at this stage that I found it difficult to spit. (JR)
The ruby-colored 1999 Clos Vougeot reveals black cherry, spice, and perfumed aromatics. Medium-bodied and rich, it has an excellent depth of fresh, well-ripened cherry fruit. Toasted oak comes out in its supple finish. Drink it over the next 7 years. Importer: Kermit Lynch Wine Merchant, Berkeley, CA; tel. (510) 524-1524.
