Noon, McLaren Vale, Eclipse, red 1999 SPAIN Not super lingering and I94 points eRobertParker. com 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. Drink 2001
