October 5, 2019 - Drunk at Sotheby's Hong Kong - My initial impression was that this was a rustic wine and that combined with the character of the powerful '99 vintage it would lead to an enjoyable (but not great) wine drinking experience. I was right to begin with but as one of my fellow CT reviewers notes, air is this wine's friend. Dare I say it, this may have even benefitted from a decant! As it opened in the glass (no doubt as every Burgundian will tell you) the wine starts to come together and takes on the elegance of great Burgundy from a great producer in a great vintage. In the end, this is an extremely underrated Roumier.
