Jardin, known as Jordan Winery throughout the world except for the United States, has fashioned this excellent value. The 1999 Chameleon, a blend of 51% Cabernet Sauvignon, 34% Merlot, and 15% Cabernet Franc, displays herbed blackberry aromas. This wine is medium-bodied, with copious amounts of sweet dark fruits that are intermingled with a slight vegetal streak. It is spicy, structured, and flavorful, yet short in the finish.
