Not a perfect bottle, initially dominated by VA, but with aeration it did show finesse and black pepper spice balanced by tart red berries. Elegantly constructed.

Powerful, dark and vibrant. Showing very well, lots of life ahead. Sleek, but full bodied. #1999 #drc

A head scratcher.. Showing riper and older than expected.. Some nuance came out with extended time in the glass, but too little too late.

1999 DRC Grands Echezeaux. Boy G at HB w B&K K. Tight at first, but hoped it would open up. It did, but unfortunately, that only made the wine slightly better. It is just going through a funky phase. K noted that it wasn't the first time we thought that abt this vintage recently and should hold off until it comes back around.

Most approachable (I thought) of the '99s, though thin compared to the RSV and riche poured side by side
