Aroma Complex nose, rich, strawberries.
Taste Black cherries, anise, wild berries, fruit and tannins are well balanced. Great fruit in finish.
The Year The 2002 growing season began with several vineyards experiencing frost in April. In late May, Merlot in the northern portion of the Valley was booming and unexpected rain caused a bit of a loss. Summer gave Napa Valley a long, mild growing season with only a few manageable heat spikes in late Spetember and early October - speeding harvest to a close. Growers "green suckered" or pruned the shoots and leaves a bit more often than normal to allow the vines to put their energy into the grape clusters - ensuring highly concentrated fruit flavors. Following verasion (when the fruit begins to change color) in July, growing conditions were truly ideal with warm days and cool, even cold, nights.
