"Checking-in on some older vintages, the 2002 Cabernet is giving a deep garnet-brick color and earthy, gamey notes with an undercurrent of dried fruit and spice cake plus a whiff of dried herbs. Its structure is holding firm with crisp acid and a high level of tight-knit, fine-grained tannins. With great concentration and a long finish."
