Wine 1959

1959 is a very great vintage and a superb success in most French wine regions. In Bordeaux, it even equalled or surpassed (in certain Classified Growths) the 1961 vintage in terms of ageing potential. The Bordeaux red wines of 1959 are rich, massive and built to age for a very long time. The bottles have evolved very slowly. On the Right Bank (Saint-Émilion and Pomerol), not all the Merlots had fully recovered from the 1956 frost, and the results were less impressive than in the great Médoc wines. The Sauternes 1959 are excellent, and the finest can still be cellared. In Burgundy, 1959 is regarded as a great year and the reds are rich, complete and of majestic balance. The fine September rains contributed to the quality of the grapes, the harvest volume was abundant, and the level of the red Burgundies is impressive (as is their ageing potential). The white Burgundies of 1959 are less successful. In Champagne, the 1959 vintage is superb. The wines are full-bodied and powerful yet fat and ripe, and therefore enjoy an enormous ageing potential. The Rhône Valley is not to be outdone, and powerful wines such as Hermitage can be enjoyed for years to come. In Alsace, the 1959 vintage is described as exceptional, and one can still find very fine wines such as certain Gewurztraminer from Domaine Weinbach which, having consumed their residual sugar, lean toward a more mineral profile with quince aromas. A superb 1959 for Loire wines, with exceptional sweet wines from Quarts de Chaume and Bonnezeaux. Moreover, 1959 is undeniably the vintage of the century for Chinon red wines. Finally, the Jura produced immense 1959 Vins Jaunes that will delight enthusiasts.
