1998 Cabernet Sauvignon

1998 Cabernet Sauvignon Wine Details
Price: $18.00 per bottle

Description: As sophisticated & voluptuous as a Cardinal’s robe by candlelight, yet with a slightly disreputable air which nicely offsets the wine’s profound cassis & black cherry core. A nicely structured Cabernet, exhibiting finesse in a Continental vein, & if you’ve managed to swallow the foregoing fat hyperbolic pile, then you get 3 points & a free cracker. Beyond that, give some thought to enjoying this wine on an evening with friends, candle light, crisp duck with a cherry glaze, or rack of lamb with fried yucca & herbs. Grapes: Lone Madrone Vineyard in the York Mountain appellation. Ageability: how about fourteen years? Cases produced: three hundred & five plus 2 bottles.
