In 1991, young Philippe Engel decided to utilize a higher percentage of new oak, extend his cold maceration prior to fermentation to 4-5 days, and put his wines in the bottle without filtration. The results are wines that rival his 1990s. The Echezeaux sweetness is a characteristic of the Clos de Vougeot and Grands Echezeaux. The 1991 Clos de Vougeot reveals a ripe cassis component, as well as a chunky, rich, fleshy texture. The tannins do not dominate either the Clos de Vougeot or Grands Echezeaux. Rather, the wines are characterized by their perfumed personalities, expansive, rich, supple flavors, and velvety textures. Both are exceptionally well made 1991s. The Grands Echezeaux displays more dimension to its bouquet and flavors. Both wines should drink well for a decade.

Another strong showing for the 2002 Clos Vougeot Grand Cru from the late Philippe Engel. The nose is ethereal, offering raspberry and crushed strawberry scents, and the palate is extraordinary in terms of focus. The finish oddly reminds me of Engel's Grands Echézeaux. Magnificent.

I slightly misjudged this as it has really harmonized in the last 6 months with its explosive and spicy black fruit nose and robust yet stylish and classy full-bodied flavors of considerable depth, weight, power and length. A really lovely effort of impressive ripeness and density for the vintage and one that should amply reward patience over the medium term. In short, this is most impressive.Inc. GSTSG$85,016.64 -

The quality here is far superior to the preceding wines as this is aromatically rich, intense and utterly classy with robust yet remarkably fine and refined flavors that combine power, weight and depth in a ripe but elegant package. Lovely stuff and this is really most impressive.Inc. GSTSG$5,372.51 -
