It was really beginning to oxidize, which is a pity. I need to find who donated the lot this was in, and not buy next time. Hopefully the other bottles in the lot are okay. It's drinkable, but it would be unfair to rate it.

I'm always amazed when I pick up something of this vintage, stored in uncertain conditions, and see that it still holds its own. I don't know that a review of something from 1999 is useful, since you either already have it, or it's not available. Very tasty, and I'm looking forward to the last of the three (a 2000).
