The black-colored 1999 Madiran Cuvee Charles de Batz, a blend of 80% Tannat and 20% Cabernet Sauvignon, is a concentrated, intense wine. A wimp-killer, this boldly-flavored offering is a chewy, tannic bombshell jam-packed with ink and asphalt flavors. Drink this excellent value between 2006 and 2020.Importer: Simon'N Cellars, Charlottesville, VA; tel. (434) 977-4476
