The 1999 Estate Reserve is a blend of 55% Shiraz and 45% Cabernet Sauvignon. It boasts an opaque ruby/purple color as well as a gorgeously plump, fleshy texture, sweet cassis fruit, and toasty wood notes. There are layers of concentration, terrific opulence, and a lusty, heady finish. Drink it over the next 7-8 years. Importer: Dan Philips, The Grateful Palate, Oxnard, CA; tel. (888) 472-5283
