Return of The Northern Collection: Property from an internationally recognized industry professional. All wines sourced from discerning private collections and stored under professional temperature and humidity control.
"The 1996 Grands Echézeaux Grand Cru, from the late Philippe Engel, has a very enticing, but it would appear, fully mature bouquet with wild mushroom and woodland/damp earth aromas infusing the loose-knit black fruit. There is perhaps just a touch of volatile acidity here, at least on this bottle. The palate is medium-bodied and it felt a little disjointed at first. However, we were afforded time and it coalesced nicely, though I remarked upon a slight "fish oil" note towards the finish that lent it an Oriental personality. The tannins feel softened after almost 20 years and there is just a touch of dryness." (91 pts. Neal Martin, Wine Advocate, Dec. 2015)
Shipping Restriction: Please note that we cannot ship to addresses in Mississippi, so please bid accordingly.
