"From young vines planted in the Cornerstone Vineyard, the 1999 Shiraz Apricot Block (aged in both new and old American oak) tips the scales at 14.8% alcohol. Its opaque purple color is accompanied by aromatic fireworks (white flowers, pepper, sweet blackberry liqueur, and cassis). This beautifully pure, full-bodied, multidimensional, layered Shiraz exhibits low acidity as well as ripe tannin."
