2002
Cabernet Sauvignon
Appellation:
Sonoma County
Owner/Winemaker: Chris Bilbro
Release date: September 1, 2005
The 2002 Cabernet has a dark ruby almost opaque
color, a dense nose of black currants, cassis and
integrated toasty oak, and overall aromas that are
full and rich with definition to come with age.
A mouthful on the palate, it is dominated by classic
cassis and currants, some subtle earthy notes and
a toasty oak background.
This is a very big Cabernet that will definitely
improve with aging, -easily 5-10 years.
