Wednesday, January 2, 2019 - Lovely wine. Bought en primeur and well worth the 17+ year wait! Nicely intense and powerful. Retains a nice core of currant, plum and cherry fruit. Notes of earth and leather as well as tobacco. Complex, mature yet fresh enough with nice acidity, mature soft tannins and a long tasty sweet finish. Overall this is a gorgeous mature Bordeaux that punches well above its weight. For a 1999 this is excellent.
