Kendall-Jackson Cabernet Sauvignon Great Estates Alexander Valley 1999
Alexander Valley, Sonoma County, California, United StatesAn all Sonoma affair (87/13) from Alexander Valley and Dry Creek Valley and almost exclusively aged in French oak. Expect an attractive spicy, sweaty saddle leather, peppery nose flecked with tar, black berry jam, licorice, earth and tobacco aromas. Fine complexity on the palate along with excellent concentration and balance. The taste is of cassis and blackberry jam flavours with a vanilla, coffee, clove, leather aftertaste. Young tannins with some hardness and acidity to dissipate; three to five years should do it. Fine effort.Tasted: 18 February 2003Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:| BC | $79.95 | 750ml | Speculative - Renaissance |
