It has been several years since I last tasted and rather lambasted the 1999 Chateau d'Armailhac. To be honest, I am still not convinced that this is a great vintage for the Chateau, certainly when in this instance, compared to the 2009. It has a fresh, rather herbaceous bouquet that does not quite deliver the requisite fruit to suit this style. The palate is medium-bodied with sharp and rather angular tannin. It is open and ready to drink, but does not really rank next to the best vintages of this estate. Tasted August 2016.
