2002 Atalon Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon

Tasting Notes
"A friendly wine, that makes a pleasing statement. Red fruit expression. Currants, leather, dried spice notes, then slightly mint, cedar tones, graceful cocoa powder structure - good length of lingering flavors." - Tom Peffer, Atalon Winemaker
