1990 Hess Collection Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve

Last Tasted 3/94 Six hundred cases of this wine will be released in September, and it is well worth the effort to find. The opaque purple color is followed by a wine with a roasted nut character, a result of aging in toasty, new oak. The wine is deeply concentrated, with highly extracted flavors, full body, and a chewy texture. A superb Cabernet Sauvignon with considerable power and impressive elegance, it will benefit from 4-6 years of cellaring and last for 20-25+ years.
