Château Palmer--Vintage 1999
1 dozen bottles per lot
Château Palmer--Vintage 1999 Cantenac (Margaux), 3ème cru classé Both lots in original wooden case Parcel: lots 31-32 "The 1999 is the greatest Palmer made since 1961, 1966, 1970, 1983, and 1989. It is one of the superstars of the vintage. The wine is a blend of 48 Cabernet Sauvignon, 46 Merlot, and 6 Petit Verdot. It boasts a staggering bouquet of violets and other spring flowers intermixed with licorice, black currants, and subtle wood. Only 50 of the production made it into the grand vin. This is a multidimensional, compelling effort with both power and elegance, it offers sweet tannin along with flavors that caress the palate, and a 45-second finish. This is terrific stuff! Anticipated maturity: 2004-2025." Robert Parker Wine Advocate #140 (Apr 2002) 1 dozen bottles per lot
