Wine 1955 Bourgogne

The 1955 vintage in Burgundy stands out as a great classical year, one of the most accomplished of the decade, born of a healthy and balanced season that produced ripe grapes endowed with fine freshness. The reds (Pinot Noir) are its defining expressions: harmonious, deep and distinguished, endowed with measured structure and great length, with superb successes in the Côte de Nuits (Gevrey-Chambertin, Vosne-Romanée, Chambolle-Musigny, Morey-Saint-Denis). The whites (Chardonnay) are rich and balanced, from Meursault to Puligny-Montrachet and Chablis. The ageing potential was considerable, carried by the balance of the vintage. Nearly seventy years on, the greatest perfectly cellared reds can still offer splendid maturity, with the individual bottle becoming decisive. Between the difficult 1954 and the disastrous 1956, the 1955 ranks among the very greatest classical years of the decade, alongside 1959.
