Vintage 1999

A difficult start to the year led to early budbreak. There were some damaging hailstorms in early May, but the frost ultimately stayed away. The summer was overall warm and thanks to the hot and dry August, the grapes looked promising for the harvest. However, a damp September challenged producers and dilution was an issue for some.

Written Notes

Palmes d’Or 1999 Rich and ripe nose with apples, tangerines, apples sauce and clarified butter. Rich attack on the palate with ripe fruit that mirrors the nose and ads a touch of sweetness to the mid-palate though the finish is quite dry and short. Now-2018 86p

Good looking magnum size bottle. Colour is yellow and medium. On the nose it is open, opulent and generous. The taste is rich, fresh, and dry, medium-bodied, with balanced structure and developing. On the palate it is layered and has buttery, white fruits, waxy and tropical fruits flavours. The finish is medium long and extensive. This wine is well-rounded. Perfectly stored bottles are still very worthy and will last well for another 1-5 years.
