Description
Robert Parker: The 1999 is the greatest Palmer made since 1961,1966, 1970, 1983, and 1989. It is one of the superstars of thevintage. The wine is a blend of 48% Cabernet Sauvignon, 46% Merlot,and 6% Petit Verdot. It boasts a staggering bouquet of violets andother spring flowers intermixed with licorice, black currants, andsubtle wood. Only 50% of the production made it into the grand vin.This is a multidimensional, compelling effort with both power andelegance, it offers sweet tannin along with flavors that caress thepalate, and a 45-second finish. This is terrific stuff! Anticipatedmaturity: 2004-2025.
