Tasting Notes and Scores
Wine Advocate
This is a pleasant, medium-bodied 1999 displaying notes of herbs and damp earth in its austere, undernourished personality. Notions of strawberry, cherry, and currant fruit also emerge, but there is not a lot to get excited about in this uninspiring 1999. It will last for a decade.
Neal Martin
The 1999 Beychevelle is a vintage that I have not encountered for some time. It has a simple nose of brambly red fruit, leather and the espresso note that I observed in previous vintages. The palate is medium-bodied with rustic tannin. This feels a little hard and pinched in the mouth, and the rustic, ferrous finish shortchanges you in terms of length. The 1999 should be consumed in the near future. Far better wines are being made by the château nowadays. Tasted from an ex-château bottle at the estate.
