Score 88/100 · Drink 2006-2015, Pierre Rovani, Feb 2003
While 1999 is not the finest vintage Rustenberg has produced of their Cabernet Sauvignon-based Peter Barlow, it is excellent and has the potential to improve with cellaring. Medium to dark ruby-colored, it has a feminine, St-Julien-like, nose of assorted black fruits intermingled with pencil lead. Juicy, elegant and detailed, this medium-bodied offering is well-balanced and possesses admirable depth of fruit. Projected maturity: 2006-2015. Importer: Cape Classics, New York, NY; tel. (212) 686-1300
