2002 Cabernet Sauvignon Padthaway

The 2002 Cabernet Sauvignon is a sexy, hedonistic, dark plum/purple-hued effort displaying a rich, sumptuous bouquet of cedar wood, licorice, new saddle leather, dried herbs, and creme de cassis. This is Australia’s version of a hedonistic vintage of Lynch Bages that includes a Rhone Valley herbes de Provence note. Seductive, fleshy, and succulent, it should be enjoyed over the next 5-7 years. Oct 2004, www.robertparker.com
