#1999 #AlterEgo #Margaux Love this wine made by #ChateauPalmer ❤️ Produced as a different interpretation of the same Palmer Terrior... (Much like if 2 different people had painted the same image...) It was awesome to be able to try both the same night! This one is 77% #Merlot & 23% #CabernetSauvignon the Alter Ego is made to enjoy sooner rather than later. This '99 is drinking beautifully right now 👍🍷 Ruby Red color, Tart Blackberries & Blueberries, smoky & slightly spicy, Clove, and a touch of Vanilla. Paired perfectly with our Pizza Margarita & Burrata Salad! 👏

Fantastic 2nd label from one of the legends of Margaux. Give it a few hours to breathe and settle down and see what a master can do with an even so-so vintage.

Uniquely Bordeaux. It was an average year and the wine needed about 30 minutes before it settled and expressed itself. Was a wonderful experience
