Franciscan Oakville Estate Magnificat 1999
Napa Valley, California, United StatesGreen bean olive and pepper aromas mark the nose of this dense round rich red. On entry it's quite dry and resiny with more weedy flavours and more peppery resiny undertones in the aftertaste. It's elegant, well-made and structured but where is the fruit. Perhaps the '99s are near as good as many thought they might be.Tasted: 14 March 2003Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:| AB | $45.00 | 750ml | Fine Wine Boutiques |
