Tasting notes
The 2002 The Coppermine Road Cabernet Sauvignon possesses a sweet perfume of roasted herbs, black currants, blackberries, lead pencil shavings, and background oak. Full-bodied and structured, it is just a notch below the quality of the 2003. Drink it over the next 12+ years. Importer: Gavin Speight, Old Bridge Cellars, Napa, CA; tel. (707) 258-9552

Saturated ruby-red. Aromas of currant, graphite, tobacco leaf, coconut and herbs. Sweet, fat and lush, with a light cabernet herbaceousness contributing to the wine's complexity. Finishes with palate-coating, slightly dry-edged tannins and very good length.
