Firm, rich and smooth, framed by silky ripe tannins. This plush, muscular wine offers mounds of black currant, blackberry, plum, chocolate, coffee, anise, spice and herb flavors. Long and sleek on the finish. Wine Enthusiast. A Cabernet Sauvignon wine from California in USA. 1999 Jones Family Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 1500ml

94 Points "This wine is the product of a small micro-vinification from a 5-acre vineyard on the upper eastern hillsides of Napa Valley. David Abreu, the well-known vineyard manager, oversees the vineyard, and acclaimed wine consultant, Heidi Barrett, makes the wine. The sensational 1997 Cabernet Sauvignon (800 cases produced) is the finest effort yet from the Jones Family. The color is a saturated blue/purple. The nose offers up classic mineral, blueberry, creme de cassis, and subtle toasty oak notes. Full-bodied, with stunning purity, a multi-layered, full-bodied palate impression, and an explosive finish, this wine requires 2-3 years of cellaring; it will age nicely for 20-25 years."

93 Points "Packs in lots of delicious flavors, from the ripe, plump plum, blackberry, black cherry and spice notes to the pretty toasty, buttery oak shadings. Very complete, dark, complex and concentrated, though the tannins are fine and integrated." Wine Spectator, Nov 15, 1999, James Laube

"Deep, dark ruby in color. Has a ripe cassis and blackcurrant type fruit in the nose with layered aromas of sweet oak and toast. Pretty classic for Cabernet. Bright powerful fruit in the mouth, lots of blackberry with a wonderful chewy texture.
