Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, August 2002

The 1999 Legacy is Stonestreet's top proprietary wine (a blend of 70.3% Cabernet Sauvignon, 28.1% Merlot, and 1.6% Cabernet Franc). It possesses a Bordeaux-like profile (although it is fuller-bodied than most Bordeaux) with notes of cocoa, chocolate, black cherries, cassis, and liquid minerals. The wine is smoky, rich, and sweet on the attack, with firm tannin in the finish. This still young, unevolved red requires 3-4 more years of cellaring. Anticipated maturity: 2005-2018.

Wine Spectator, November 2003

Excellent structure. Taut plum, cedar and black cherry and firm, chewy tannins are all tightly wound, with a dry cedar and leather aftertaste. Needs time and decanting. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Best from 2004 through 2012. 1,500 cases made.

About Winery

High above California's Alexander Valley stand the towering Mayacamas Mountains, home to Stonestreet's rugged Alexander Mountain Estate. This epic, untamed landscape is both challenging and rewarding when it comes to growing grapes.

With less than 800 of 5,100 acres planted to vine, this extreme expanse doesn't take kindly to direct orders. Comprised of 400 separate vineyard blocks aligned with the contours of the mountain, the Estate is an intricate puzzle of peaks, valleys and ridges that create a broad spectrum of aspects and facings. The story of Stonestreet is the story of commitment to uncovering the true potential of this special land.
