2/9/2019 - Eric Guido Likes this wine: 98 Points
The unbelievably classic 1999 was a treat from the moment I put my nose to the glass. Here I found a mesmerizing display of crushed black fruits, stone dust, sage, balsamic spice, black tea and moist earth. On the palate, silky textures showed a balance of great depth versus finesse, as dark red fruits displayed a sweet-and-sour persona, with a mix of savory spices and dark inner florals. The finish was long with tart berries, a twang of lingering acidity and hints of tannin. This is a model of poise and refinement, balanced to age for many more years to come.
