2002 Krupp Brothers Cabernet Sauvignon Stagecoach Vineyard

This dense, full-bodied, full-throttle 2002 Cabernet Sauvignon Stagecoach Vineyard is classically Californian in its power, intensity, extract and noticeable new oak. Some jagged tannins raise a few reservations about how this wine will evolve over the next decade. Not much has changed since it was an infant, and currently it is impressively youthful, pure and ripe. However, the tannins stand out as if extraction may have been pushed too much. As always, time will tell. Tel. (707) 226-2215; Fax (707) 259-6198
