1999 Pierre de Crillon Chambertin
The 1999 Pierre de Crillon Chambertin is a rare opportunity to buy mature grand cru Burgundy as a true late release direct from the domaine, with provenance and storage handled from the start. Chambertin is the crown jewel of Gevrey, and in a structured, classic year like 1999, it produces Pinot Noir built for slow evolution, with depth, savory complexity, and a long, mineral finish rather than simple fruit. With more than two decades in the bottle, this is now in a prime window, showing the complexity of the tertiary stage, yet it still has enough backbone to continue developing. It's a fantastic buy from one of Burgundy's most prized Grand Cru vineyards and a rare opportunity to grab a domaine-held, late-release Chambertin from a strong vintage. These have just been released, and this is the best buy for Chambertin proper from '99 on the market right now so don’t miss it!
