Beaune Premier Cru “Clos du Roi” 1999 – Maison Pierre André

The 1999 Beaune Premier Cru “Clos du Roi” from Maison Pierre André is a noble and well-structured expression of one of Beaune’s most prestigious climats. The outstanding 1999 Burgundy vintage produced wines of completeness, combining ripe fruit, balance and excellent ageing potential. Now fully mature, this Premier Cru shows a fine harmony between controlled power and elegance.

The colour displays a deep ruby hue with garnet and slight brick tones at the rim, reflecting graceful ageing. The nose is broad and complex, offering black cherry, ripe raspberry and plum, followed by tertiary aromas of forest floor, fine leather, blond tobacco and gentle spices. A subtle smoky, earthy note highlights the assertive character of Clos du Roi.

On the palate, the wine is structured, precise and beautifully integrated. The tannins, still present yet finely resolved, provide backbone and depth. Flavours of evolved red and dark fruits, liquorice, damp earth and noble oak unfold with clarity and balance. The finish is long and persistent, retaining freshness and classic elegance — a hallmark of great Beaune Premier Crus.

A mature and characterful Beaune Premier Cru — harmonious, expressive and refined — perfect for lovers of accomplished Burgundies seeking structure, complexity and noble expression.
