Nice to see you around these parts!We've had the 99 CRB sauvignon a couple of times, most recently last night while watching the Mets dig a hole for themselves, and I think its one of their best regular cuvées in a few years--larger and more honeydew-fruity than the past few, still a great buy. Not serious? Maybe not a wine to put down for years, but seriously tasty at the moment.
I was similarly impressed with the 98 VT, although the bottle I had showed a bit more primary--very ripe and young and promising indeed.
Thanks for the notes,
