1999 Red Bordeaux
The elements conspired in 1999 to give growers some of the most challenging
weather conditions in the last decade.
Intermittent storms hit most regions in the early half of August, though the
weather was hot and dry in the latter half of the month. St-Emilion was
hit by a particularly vicious hailstorm on 5th September and the heavens opened
just when the Merlot
grapes were reaching optimum ripeness. The Médoc fared better, with the
majority of the Cabernets being picked during the final week of
September when dry weather prevailed.
The top properties overcame the weather problems and produced very attractive
wines with excellent balance, lovely ripe fruit and good structure.

Ch. Léoville Poyferré was always the perennially underestimated property of the three Léovilles, so we are delighted to see that it is now finally getting the credit it deserves. Quality has soared since Didier Cuvelier took control in the 1970s and in the last 20 years ... MORE Parker Score: 89/100 | ||||

Swathes of Cabernet fruit here. This wine has wonderful concentration, impressive layers of new oak, opulent fruit and a marvellously long finish. This is a wine that can be enjoyed in its youth, middle age and in 10 years time. Outstanding! Drink 2006-2022 . Parker Score: 91/100 | ||||
