1999 Palmer Alter Ego

Bought in 2002 for $48 Opened last night with steaks, sweet potatoes, brussels sprouts. Nose opened with rich deep cherries, tobacco, and some tar. In the mouth opened with deep rich cherries with a bit of tar and floral aspect. Smooth midpalate and long finish of cherries. Mouthfeel was seductively silky. Overall fairly one dimensional wine but still quite delicious. Dale Scale B+
