Score 90/100 · Drink 2005-2016, Robert Parker, Apr 2002

Dany and Michel Rolland's home estate has produced a dense, ruby/purple-colored wine with an intriguing perfume of espresso, sweet vanilla, and black cherry jam. It is powerful and concentrated for a 1999. This medium to full-bodied, moderately tannic Pomerol is atypically structured, with plenty of grip, length, and intensity. It is a superb effort for the vintage Anticipated maturity: 2005-2016.

Score 88.5/100 · Drink 0-0, Stephen Tanzer, Vinous

Good ruby-red. Complex aromas of raspberry, cassis, plum liqueur, violet, licorice, mint and alluring oak. Dense and supple, but with a firm edge keeping its sweetness under wraps. Complicating note of dark chocolate. Finishes with big, dusty tannins and very good persistence.
