Franciscan Magnificat 1999
Bordeaux Red Blends
from Napa Valley, California
winemaker's notes:
From each vintage we compose Magnificat, a red Meritage wine that best expresses the unique
terroir of our Oakville Estate. Blending creates a harmonious wine which is ultimately more than
each of its individual elements: Cabernet Sauvignon for structure, Merlot for suppleness, and Cabernet Franc for spice and aroma. Determining the exact composition of the final blend is an art form, making each vintage distinctive and unique.
Appearance: Deep ruby red.
Aroma: Cherry, black licorice, vanilla.
Flavor: Rich blackcherry, plum, chocolate, cedar and spice with rich supple tannins and a long finish.
Alcohol: 13.5%

Stumbled across this Meritage while out at dinner last Fall and just can't get enough now.
