"Being typical of the Jarvis cooler region vineyards, the 2002 harvest lead to a remarkable 100% Cabernet Sauvignon wine that seduces you with its dark ruby color. Intense dried fruit aromas precede a robust presence of candied fruit and allspice. This is a vibrant wine that cheerfully greets you and stays with you throughout a parade of flavors. Twenty months in new French Nevers barrels adds a dimension of toasty vanilla. In short, a tamed giant that is a perfect example of 'the King of Wine'. This wine continued its development in the bottle for 3 years prior to its release, making it ready for enjoyment now. With ideal storage, the 750ml bottles of this wine will continue to age beautifully through 2016." -Winery
