Château La Mission-Haut-Brion--Vintage 1999
Pessac (Graves), cru classé
Tasting note: The medium to full-bodied 1999 La Mission Haut Brion is beautifully complex, with notes of cherry liqueur, plums, cigar smoke, fresh tobacco, and scorched earth. This deep, elegant, yet precise wine is cut from the same mold as the 1962, 1971, 1983, and 1985. Though not a heavyweight, it is gorgeously complex, supple, and both hedonistic and intellectual. Anticipated maturity: 2003-2018. 91 points, Robert Parker, Wine Advocate # 140 (Apr 2002)
