Description
The 30th vintage from the Bosché Vineyard is a deep ruby color, with delightful aromas of blackberry jam, black currant, clove, dark chocolate, and slight juniper berry. Full round flavors of rich chocolate, blackberry, and black raspberry, plus soft tannins and a long, luscious finish. Looking back, 1999 was a longer and cooler growing season than average, giving a great slow and steady ripening pattern. Red wines across the board showed good structure and particularly intense color; cabernets should age especially well.
