TN: 2002 Kuleto Estate Cabernet Sauvignon (USA, California, Napa Valley) | Wine Spectator Forums

2002 Kuleto Estate Cabernet Sauvignon - USA, California, Napa Valley (2/25/2007)
Ultra dark intense crimson color with the slightest purple edge. The nose shows some anise, currant, cherries, cassis, and espresso. On the palate there is a wonderful purity and lushness. A dark fruited medley with espresso and cocoa. This Cabernet has an amazing soft mouthfeel and a lilt balance of fine tannins and acid. To me this is more of a drinking wine than a food wine. This is a truly special Cabernet, especially when you take into account its cost; $40. A modern day Napa QPR. Over the past few months this wine has evolved nicely. It has picked up much more character, and has ironed out its rough edges. Drinks like today’s $100 Napas. Wow (94 pts.)
