Noon Grenache-Shiraz 'Eclipse' 1999 --RP 94 750ml
| "The 1999 Eclipse (a blend of 66% Grenache and 34% Shiraz aged in American oak and bottled unfiltered) tips the scales at a hefty 14.9% alcohol. The wine has an opaque purple color as well as a fabulously sweet nose of blackberry and cassis liqueur interspersed with licorice, truffle, and vanillin. Full-bodied, heady, layered, ripe, pure, and sumptuous, it is a dazzling 1999 to drink over the next 15-16 years. P.S. Life is too short not to be drinking the wines of Drew Noon." Robert Parker's The Wine Advocate, June 2001.
