Wine Advocate
par Robert Parker le 30/04/2000
A beauty from the Margaux appellation (probably the vintage's most homogenous area for fine wine), this floral-scented, sexy, complex, dark purple-colored 1999 exhibits medium body, sweet tannin, ripe fruit, and fine persistence and length. While not a blockbuster heavyweight, it is a beautifully-etched, concentrated, fruit-filled effort built around subtlety and depth. The soft tannin and ripe fruit suggest it will drink well young, but evolve easily for 15 or more years. Anticipated maturity: 2003-2018.
