winemaker's notes:

"The extraordinary 2002 Cardinale (88% Cabernet Sauvignon and 12% Merlot from vineyards Mount Veeder, Keyes, and To-Kalon) was aged in 100% new French oak. This inky/purple-colored Pauillac-styled red boasts notes of cedar wood, licorice, and black currants along with a smoky, ripe, full-bodied palate impression, terrific concentration, sweet tannin, and multiple layers. It should hit its peak in 2-4 years, and last through 2020."

A Customer - Los Angeles
I have always wanted to know what a 95 Parker-rated cabernet tasted like. I had a chance at the Cardinale tasting room this week. This is something very special. Big, concentrated, perfumed but very drinkable right now. Could have had the whole bottle. It was that good! All this at 10 O'Clock in the morning. My red wine taste buds are not up to snuff till much later. But this wine was something else. The 2001 and 2000 were also available for tasting. They were excellent as well, but the 2002 was a notch above. Make that two notches. And yes I bought some, even at those prices. Worth it? You bet! John P.
