Winemaker Notes
The 1999 growing season was moderately cool through August, providing a gradual progression of deep flavor development and even ripening. September and October provided the warmth in the late season we needed to achieve full flavor maturity and ripening.
The 1999 Symmetry greets you with an opulent bouquet of blackberries, ripe dark plums and sweet spices. The wine opens generously on the palette with layers of blackberries, cassis and plums framed with accents of dark chocolate and sweet spices. The finish is long, rich and supple.
