Vintage information 1999:

A very expensive release for followers of 'Burgundy'...
Little to say; despite the high yields, it was a very good year for whites and we hope (given the quantity of bottles in my cellar) one of the best for a generation in reds - unusually from both Côtes.
The wines displayed uncommon but not excessive density to match the fine acidity.
From the better producers the wines can be magnificent. Recent bottles show that the wines are a long, long way from maturity

1999 Moissenet-Bonnard Jean-Louis, Pommard Les EpenotsMar. 2010
Comely, warm red fruit aromas. Almost velvet tannin, you have to wait for the mid-plate for fruit flavour, but then it bursts through before holding very well in the finish. Like the last wine, very primary.
