Chateau Malartic-Lagraviere 1999

Professionele reviews

Robert Parker (90)

This sexy, open-knit, layered, dense ruby-colored 1999 is a light but delicious effort displaying super-sweet tobacco, black currant, and scorched earth notes. It is a sleeper of the vintage. The wine is pure, with beautiful balance and pinpoint precision. It should be drunk during its first 10-12 years of life. This is a classic example of elegance and finesse that only Bordeaux can achieve.

Winespectator (89)

Very pretty tobacco, cedar and berry. Medium- to full-bodied, with solid fruit and tannins. Long finish. Extremely well-done for the vintage from this estate.
