Firms up on the finish, with rich, dense tannins. Patience required. Best from 2004 through 2012.\" JL for WS Oct 2002\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nRP93 \"There are 300+ cases of Merus's 1999 Cabernet Sauvignon (the second vintage produced by proprietors Mark Herold and Erika Gottl) which tips the scales with a well-hidden 14.8% alcohol. The saturated blue\/purple color is accompanied by aromas of sweet licorice, high quality French oak, and black currant as well as blackberry fruit. The wine is full-bodied and rich, with elegance, sweet tannin, and a textured, impressive mouthfeel, it is one of the top wines of the vintage. This is a full-throttle effort to drink over the next 15-16 years.\" RP Aug 2002","brand":"Merus","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48592492003565,"sku":"USR:MER:MERU-0750-1999-F0L0C0","price":129.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0319\/8592\/6203\/files\/USRMERMERU-0750-1999-F0L0C0.jpg?v=1758066189","url":"https:\/\/grandcruliquidassets.com\/products\/1999-merus-cabernet-sauvignon-napa-valley-bottle-750ml","provider":"Grand Cru Liquid Assets","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
