Screaming Eagle, Cabernet Sauvignon--Vintage 1999
Napa Valley
"The bottled 1999 (a blend of 88 Cabernet Sauvignon, 10 Merlot, and 2 Cabernet Franc) is as profound as I predicted a year and a half ago. It boasts an opaque purple color along with a gorgeously pure nose of creme de cassis, charcoal, and floral characteristics. The wine is opulent, dense, and rich, with exceptional purity, a viscous texture, and impressive underlying tannin that frames its large but elegant personality. Not surprisingly, this is a candidate for the wine of the vintage." Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #142 (Aug 2002)
