Score 88/100 · Drink 2001-2005, Pierre Rovani, Jun 2001
The delicious, medium to dark ruby-colored 1999 Bourgogne Vieilles Vignes was subjected to filtration. Produced from vines planted in 1928 and 1955, with an average age well over 60 years, it reveals a spicy, dark cherry-laced nose. Medium-bodied and intensely flavored, this blackberry, cherry, Asian spice, and cinnamon-flavored wine is boisterous, satin-textured, and delicious. Drink it over the next 4 years. Importer: Frederick Wildman & Sons, New York, NY; tel. (212) 355-0700.
