Made from 30-year old vines, this 100% Cabernet Sauvignon was rigid and unevolved the day I tasted it, even though it's a late release from the impressive 1998 vintage. It possesses great fruit, pure creme de cassis notes, excellent purity, and a medium-bodied, backward style reminiscent of a barrel sample. The wood is nicely integrated, and the wine is long as well as promising. I would not be surprised to see it merit a 90-point score in 3-4 years. Anticipated maturity: 2005-2016.Importer: Dan Philips, The Grateful Palate, Oxnard, CA; tel. (888) 472-5283
