From those that (should) know:
90 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Tasted at the Pontet-Canet vertical in London, the 1999 Château Pontet-Canet put in a respectable showing and demonstrated more class than either the 1996 or 1982. Well-defined on the nose, there is a satisfying delivery of blackberry and blueberry fruit infused with dried blood and incense as it moves into its secondary stage. The palate is medium-bodied with classic tobacco-infused black fruit. There is nice salinity here, not a complex Pauillac by any stretch of the imagination, although there is impressive precision on the conservative finish. Probably at its peak now, the 1999 Pontet-Canet is a wine that never had lofty ambitions, but a wine that I would welcome on my table. Tasted February 2016. (NM) (3/2016)
90 points Wine Spectator
Delivers complex aromas of Indian spices and blackberry. Full-bodied, with supersilky tannins and a long, caressing finish. Very long and enjoyable. Really coming on now. (JS, Web-2010)
Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar
Good full ruby-red. Plum, tar, cedar and a hint of herbaceousness on the nose. Plummy and moderately dense, with warm notes of tar and tobacco. Finishes with less ripe tannins that show a hint of dryness. (ST) (5/2002)
