While specific vintage reports for the 1991 Coquard Loison Fleurot Grands Echezeaux Grand Cru are scarce, Grands Echezeaux itself is a highly esteemed Grand Cru vineyard in Burgundy. Coquard Loison Fleurot's Grand Echézeaux Grand Cru is crafted from 1.33 hectares of vines, including parcels in Les Treux, and is typically matured in 50% new oak. For this 1991 vintage, expect a robust and dark profile, with aromas evoking autumn, wet leaves, and forest floor, beautifully intertwined with notes of cherry, raspberry, and currants. The oak is well-integrated, contributing to a medium body, balanced acidity, and refined tannins. The finish is good, showcasing the complexity that develops with age. General tasting notes for this wine also mention red cherry, wild strawberry, violet, damp earth, and a hint of spice, with a silky yet structured palate and fine-grained tannins. Food Pairing: This Grand Cru Burgundy is a magnificent partner for sophisticated dishes. It pairs exceptionally well with roasted beef, veal, or poultry, especially game birds like duck or goose. Its earthy and red fruit characteristics also complement truffle dishes, rich stews, or mature hard cheeses. For an Eastern pairing, consider a slow-cooked Cantonese beef brisket or a refined Japanese wagyu steak. Event Suggestions: A 1991 Grands Echezeaux Grand Cru is a truly special bottle, perfect for a landmark celebration, a serious wine collector's dinner, or an intimate gathering where the appreciation of a rare and mature Grand Cru Burgundy is paramount. It's a wine to be savoured slowly, allowing its intricate layers to unfold. Serving Advice for this mature wine: Stand the bottle upright for at least 24-48 hours before serving to allow any sediment to settle. Use a two-pronged cork puller or a Durand to carefully extract the potentially fragile cork. Decant gently and just before serving, only if necessary to separate from sediment, as very old wines can fade quickly with excessive air exposure. Serve at a cool cellar temperature, around 16-18°C (60-64°F). 【A rare Grand Cru from one of Burgundy's most prestigious appellations.】
