Description
Robert Parker: The sexy, dark plum/purple-colored 1999 Margaux isalready revealing complex aromatics. This surprisingly charming andround offering is reminiscent of a vintage such as 1985. Althoughneither a blockbuster nor a heavyweight, it grows in the mouthrevealing tremendous length as well as purity. Administrator PaulPontallier prefers it to the more austere 1998, as do I. This is anarchetypical Chateau Margaux of richness, finesse, balance, andsymmetry. It can be drunk young, but promises to age nicely for twodecades. Extrapolating backwards, it would probably have somethingin common with the underrated 1962 Medocs.
