Tasting Notes

Upon release, the 1999 Jordan Cabernet Sauvignon featured layers of dried cassis and black cherry fruits, intermingling with a bouquet of tea leaf, tobacco, leather and autumn spices. Continuing to showcase a great structure and polished tannins, this wine is now showing aromas of ripe black cherry and pine, followed by black plum, cherry, clove and vanilla on the palate. Decant and enjoy immediately. Drink 750mL bottles now. The 1.5L may be enjoyed now through 2025, 3L through 2030 and 6L through 2035.
