Result!

A case of 1999 Chateau La Tour Figeac Grand Cru arrived this afternoon
courtesy of the Sunday Times wine club competition.

Quietly gobsmacked I is!

Buzby emerged from their own little world to say

1999 was a really bad year. You won't like it. Best give it away soonest.

 

I know an Older Gentleman who might be able to help you out.

"Chateau Figeac is a perplexing wine that can be frustratingly
inconsistent. Reading my notes, they form a roller-coaster ride from the
heights of sumptuous bottles of 1955, 1964, 1985 and 1990 and the depths
of lily-livered weaklings such as the 1981, 1983 and 1999. "

It's all relative, even so I'm pretty sure it's going to be somewhat better
than the usual fare in Buzby Towers

 

Don't worry its prize envy, which is like laser envy but without the
batteries.
