This is a beautifully elegant offering.
The 1999 Cabernet Sauvignon's opaque purple color accompanies a sweet perfume of smoke, black currants, and licorice. This full-bodied Cabernet possesses noticeable tannic structure yet gorgeously sweet as well as pure fruit, a layered texture, and a long, spicy finish. Anticipated maturity: 2005-2020.
