Note di degustazione
The dark ruby/purple-colored 1999 Cabernet Sauvignon Diamond Mountain, from a vineyard high up Diamond Mountain, exhibits a dense, austere, Bordeaux-like structure, rich, sweet cassis fruit intermixed with earth, licorice, and roasted herbs, medium body, and abundant tannin. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2015. Will it ever achieve harmony and finesse? Will it ever be enjoyable enough to actually drink? Tel. (800) 600-6899; Fax (800) 600-5895

Full medium ruby. Slightly medicinal aromas of blackberry, cassis, and mint, plus a whiff of game. Fat, lush and supple but uncompromisingly dry, with a large underlying structure. A more elegantly styled wine than the Howell Mountain cabernet. The substantial, building tannins spread out to coat the entire palate.
