The 1999 Maslin Beach Blanche Point (named after a nudist beach) reveals abundant spicy American oak in the nose, but pulls back in the mouth to offer concentrated, jammy fruit. With earthiness, spice, and currants as well as good overall balance, it will drink well for 4-5 years. Readers punch-drunk from some of the excessively high prices for New World wines should definitely check out Scarpantoni.Importer: Dan Philips, The Grateful Palate, Oxnard, CA; tel. (888) 472-5283
