Grgich Hills Cabernet Sauvignon 1999

Our 1999 Cabernet Sauvignon has typical Cabernet aromas and a long, lingering aftertaste, coating your tongue with a gentle layer of soft tannins (sometimes called "Rutherford dust") and mouth-filling flavors of currant, blackberry, spice and chocolate to prolong your enjoyment. It is structured much like a classic Bordeaux with a solid base of 95% Cabernet Sauvignon blended with 2.5% Merlot and 2.5% Cabernet Franc to create a unique wine with great complexity, perfect balance, and a deep garnet color. Like all of our Cabernets, this vintage was built for the cellar and will improve with age (just like good people). We recommend serving this wine with prime rib au jus, venison, or a grilled steak as the perfect complement to a festive dinner.
