Refer to our catalog for an explanation of these abbreviations. Wine notes: "The medium to dark ruby-colored 1999 Richebourg is compelling. Its aromatics display great ripeness in their roasted dark berry, fresh herb, talcum, and plum scents. It is medium to full-bodied, broad, and full-flavored. This is an elegant wine with loads of spicy, in-your-face fruit whose flavors last throughout its unbelievably long finish. It magnificently balances extroverted sweet fruit with refinement, precision, and delineation. This is not a dense, chewy wine, but one that is extraordinarily detailed and profound."(95-97pts) Provenance: From Europe with Love: Our continental gentleman, a collector of extraordinary taste and legendary generosity, returns with 100+ selections of ancient and modern wonders. The headline is 1959 Latour, supported by Cheval Blanc from 1953, 1955, and 1961, full cases of 1975 and 1982 La Mission Haut-Brion, and Margaux reaching back to 1924.
