Oenothèque 1959
Oenothèque
1959ON THE PALATE
The ripeness of the grapes radiates in an opulence that is full, yet never heavy. The warm, ample, fairly sweet attack proclaims extreme body. Well-rounded and exceptionally long, fat and fruit in the mouth. An amazingly fresh finish for the vintage.
ON THE NOSE
Exceptionally complex, revealing aromas of oriental tobacco, honey, liquorice, figs and a blend of coffee and chocolate.
The 1959 Harvest
The harvest began on September 10th under conditions rarely enjoyed in the Champagne region. Everything combined to make the year a quintessential vintage.
