Found this bottle at the same wholesale store at Hamburg, Germany like some other Chateaus and bottles in the last weeks......Never had drunk this chateau before. But found it a bargain for "only" 27€ to be able to try a fully matured wine, even though 1999 is not a great Vintage..... Same with this bottle. Quite nice black fruit, midweight wine, little vanilla, but at the end an only mediocre aftertaste. so I won´t buy another bottle.

Needed about half an hour to open up. Fruity nose, good backbone, not especially complex but pleasant. Medium body. Very good with rich vegetable soup.

Relatively light body, not very complex but ready to drink now. Long though bit acidic and alcoholic finish, especially with more air. Decanted 4h
