Côte de Nuits, Burgundy, France
The '99 Ruchottes-Chambertin is still so youthfully tight with crystalline red fruits, crushed stone, hints of forest floor and dried flowers on the nose. Angular textures gave way to amazingly pure fruit and brisk acidity with inner floral tones that lasted throughout the refined and youthful finish. You can only judge this wine on potential, yet I'm very excited to see where it's headed.
