1999 Pavie Macquin
The Wine Advocate
RP 90
Reviewed by: Robert M. Parker, Jr.
Release Price: $62
Drink Date: 2007 - 2020
The dense plum/purple-colored 1999 offers up aromas of truffles, underbrush, espresso, black cherries, and roasted meats. The wine is powerful and muscular with high extract and mouth-searing tannin, it is an atypically backward effort for the vintage. Patient connoisseurs who admire wines with this level of intensity will be handsomely repaid for their discipline. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2020.
