1999 Chateau La Mission Haut BrionColour : Red Producer : La Mission Haut Brion Country : France Region : Bordeaux Sub Region : Pessac Leognan Variety : Proprietary Blend Vintage : 1999 Capacity : 750 ml Standard Bottle Rating : RP91 Robert Parker Wine Advocate Tasting Note : Made in a lighter style, the fully mature 1999 reveals notes of beef blood, roasted herbs, black truffles, damp earth and black currants intermixed with hints of espresso and spice box. This medium bodied,

structured mid-palate and a long

pear and citrus zest

truffle and the distinctive iron-mineral edge of the Montalcino galestro

but there is a mineral

dried anise and sweet tobacco accents through the finish

offering up subtle notions of potpourri

The combination of the single-vineyard discipline

in the finest vintages

The palate is precise and energetic
