Wine Details
Price:
$150.00 per bottle
Description:
The 1999 vintage tops off a decade of magnificent vintages for Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon. This great vintage began with a cool spring and wonderfully moderate growing season, which contributed to a late start to the harvest. The extra hang time allowed the grapes ample opportunity to fully ripen and develop concentrated flavors. Rich and expansive on the palate, with ripe fruit and silky tannins, the 1999 vintage exhibits the combination of depth and elegance that has become the hallmark of Far Niente Cabernet Sauvignon.
The primary source for our Cabernet is our estate Stelling Vineyard, located behind the Far Niente winery in Oakville. This 100-acre vineyard produces wines that exhibit the cassis, blackberry and "dusty" components typical of wines grown in the soils of west Oakville.
