93 / 100 Robert Parker The beautiful 1999 Mouton Rothschild may be a modern day clone of their 1962 or 1985. Its saturated ruby/purple color is followed by sumptuous aromas of cedar wood, creme de cassis, wood smoke, coffee, and dried herbs. The wine is forward, lush, and full-bodied. It is already complex as well as succulent, fleshy, and long. Tannin in the finish suggests more nuances will emerge in 4-5 years. It is a complex, classic Mouton. Wine Advocate #140 Apr 2002
91 / 100 Wine Spectator Delivers sweet tobacco and plum aromas, with a lovely richness. Full-bodied, featuring lots of cedar, tobacco, chocolate and berry character. Long and silky in the palate. There is no sense in waiting; this is so delicious now. Drink now. 20,165 cases made. http://www.winespectator.com/wine/detail/source/search/not..
17 / 20 Jancis Robinson Sweet and lively and lean and a little tart. Fine but not ineluctably first growth standard. A bit stolid and simple.
