1999 Georges & Henri Jayer Echezeaux Burgundy
Henri Jayer was a producer of red Burgundy known for making some of the most critically acclaimed and expensive Pinot Noir in the world. Jayer retired in from winemaking in 2001 and passed away in 2006, and the domaine was left to his nephew, Emmanuel Rouget, and all vintages since 2001 have been released under his name. Limited production and the finite number in existence have made Henri Jayer's wines some of the most collectible and highly priced in the world.

Rating 1999 Georges & Henri Jayer Echezeaux Burgundy Original Importer and bought on release - Pristine Condition The Echezeaux is what one expects of Grand Cru burgundy but rarely gets-an explosively rich yet elegant wine that titillates the palate with exotic flavors. When asked why his wines are so consistently great, Jayer simply responds, "I make the kind of wine I like." His wines are aged in 100% new oak, are never filtered, and are bottled directly from the barrel. The excellent color and well-delineated, intense Pinot Noir fruit he gets could well come from his special "cold maceration," which involves totally destemming the grapes after picking and putting them in tanks where they stay before the fermentation starts.
