2002 Cabernet Sauvignon 750 ml Details
2002 Cabernet Sauvignon 750 ml
Day-by-day this wine gets better and better. Each time we open a bottle here we are finding new flavors and new depth. Very smooth and tantalizing. This has been a real sleeper and just started to open up at the first of this year.
Alder Yarrow - July, 2015
Dark garnet in color, this wine smells of crushed herbs, graphite, tobacco and cherry. In the mouth, juicy cherry, cedar and graphite flavors sit under a nice gauzy blanket of tannins and wonderful brightness thanks to excellent acidity. Good length, with dried herbs and flowers in the long finish, coupled with a dark earthy rumble.
Score: Between 9 and 9.5
Fredric Koeppel - July, 2014
Dark ruby color; still young, highly structured, with leathery tannins and mineral-laced oak, but encouraging notes of plum and cherry compote. Give it three or four more years.
