Corton-Bressandes Joseph Drouhin 1999 is a Grand Cru red Burgundy from the highly regarded 1999 vintage, representing a classic expression of the Corton hill`s power and a testament to the elegant, meticulous winemaking of Maison Joseph Drouhin. Situated on the iconic Corton hill, the vines benefit from a steep south-east orientation, promoting excellent sun exposure. The soil consists of a blend of clay and small stones, compelling the Pinot Noir vines to establish deep root systems. This wine is now in a beautiful stage of maturity.

Vinous
Ruby-red. Deep, smoky aromas of raspberry, medicinal cherry, game and earth; very Corton. Big, rich, layered and deep but with nicely focused flavors. Still youthfully unevolved. Tannins come across as quite fine, thanks to the wine strong buffering material. Consistent with the quality of the vintage on the Cote de Beaune, this cuvee seems much stronger than the '98 version did at a similar stage.
