Kendall-Jackson Cabernet Sauvignon Great Estates Napa Valley 1999

Napa Valley, California, United StatesPeppery, blackberry jam aromas with dark earth, leather, vanilla, coffee, and mulberry scents. Ripe and big with round balanced tannins. Again, big peppery, blackberry jam, spicy, clove, vanilla leather and earth flavours and a long creamy vanilla/coffee finish. Big and young and will need at least 3-5 years to approach maturity. Excellent wine. All Napa (and mostly Rutherford) fruit in 91 per cent French oak.Tasted: 18 February 2003Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
