A hedonistic, head-turning crowd-pleaser, this dark ruby-colored, flamboyant 1999 boasts a knock-out perfume of scorched earth, smoked herbs, jammy black cherry fruit, chocolate, and roasted coffee. The wine is plump and fleshy, with low acidity, excellent purity, outstanding concentration, and no hard edges. This is a seamless, gorgeous Le Tertre-Roteboeuf to drink over the next 12-15 years.
Rene Gabriel rates this wine 18/20 points.
