Comte Georges De Vogue, Bonnes Mares Grand Cru, 1987
🏰 This 1987 Comte Georges de Vogüé Bonnes Mares Grand Cru is a rare find, showcasing the resilience of Burgundy's Côte de Nuits in a challenging vintage. The 1987 Burgundy vintage was marked by mixed conditions, including heavy rainfall, but a warm September allowed a small crop to ripen well, particularly in the Côte de Nuits, where some sophisticated wines with aging capacity were produced. Expect a wine with a lighter, more delicate profile, likely exhibiting mature notes of dried leaves and earthy undertones, with a silky, rounded charm.
🍴 Pair this elegant red Burgundy with classic French dishes like roasted duck with cherry sauce, coq au vin, or mushroom risotto. For an Asian twist, consider Cantonese braised pigeon or a delicate dim sum selection.
🥂 Perfect for a contemplative evening, a special anniversary dinner, or a gathering of Burgundy enthusiasts appreciating a mature expression of a Grand Cru.
Kindly remember that for a wine of this age, the cork and capsule may be fragile. While the wine offers a unique glimpse into a past vintage, its condition can vary, so approach with positive anticipation.
