Score 89/100 · Drink 2007-2025, Robert Parker, Aug 2002
The 1999 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve (608 cases, half with screw caps and half with corks) is a dense, ripe offering with ferociously high tannin levels. If the tannin melts away without a loss of fruit, it will merit 90 points. The style of the 1999 vintage, with its Bordeaux-like tannin structure, suggests these wines will always have abundant tannin. Nevertheless, this 1999 Cabernet possesses pure black currant/raspberry fruit, underlying minerality, and beautiful intensity, but, oh the high tannin! Anticipated maturity: 2007-2025.
