The 1999 Cabernet Sauvignon Lamb Vineyard (260 cases) reveals a distinctive bouquet with a Graves-like scorched earth character. While it possesses a complex, intense aromatic profile, the hard, tannic, angular finish is troublesome. Patience will be required, but this dense ruby/purple-colored effort may never develop fully, hence the question mark. Anticipated maturity: 2004-2015?
