Well, there it goes, the last of my 99 Burgs bought on release. This one did not disappoint and fits with my experience with this vintage from village to GC over the last decade. Lovely black cherry, white pepper, mushrooms, and some forest floor. Very soft and almost Volnay-like, but with Vosne spiciness. Perfect with Thanksgiving fare.

PopnPour, tasted over 2 hrs, bottle from secondary market -med dark red purple mild-moderate bricking -aromatic sweet dark cherry and mature/sous bois elements -med/med+ acidity, med- weight but very sappy concentrated core with relatively simple faded black cherry and mature elements finishing with a streak of oak and just a bit of tannic structure -fully mature, drinking well now

Completely over the hill and stewy. Cork was pristine. Disappointing. Have one more bottle from the same lot.

ganska mogen men ändå med fruktighet. Lite läder och mylla i doften. Mjuknande tanniner men bra bett
