This was extremely enjoyable at this stage. Early secondary state, with a nice balance from the still-present primary fruit flavors, and poise on the palate. Punching above its weight.

Splendid bottle. Intense concentration and impeccable mouthfeel. Big, balanced and bold. Still tannins present, soft and integrated ones. Plenty of deep dark fruit left to complete the experience.

During a burg dinner. This is also on the rustic side but not as bad as the 2000 CdV next to it. The 1999 fruit shines through to make it a bit more pleasant. Still not a Burg experience I would seek out.

Only one glass from the coravin thus far; deep dark fruit prominent but opens up nicely, “suave tannins.” Will add more on second tasting

No formal notes, but this is still drinking beautifully and will likely last for several more years.
