Wine Review: Cabernet Sauvignon, Mount Veeder Winery, Napa Valley, 2002

Our Comments
I bought this Mount Veeder Winery [Link] wine at Trader Joe's Dec 2005, Drank 12/25/2005. Well balanced and a treat. We had this at Christmas dinner 2005 and it was a hit. Not a big oak cab, this will not knock your socks off, but consistent from the first sip to the nice finish. If slow and steady wins the race this is a real winner. [My Rating [Link], 9] We like this a lot.

Mystery wine reviewers notes:

The 2002 Mt. Veeder Cabernet Sauvignon is solid and well-made, with a trim band of cedar, currant, herb and fresh earth flavors that are well-proportioned, if lacking extra flavor dimensions. Drink now through 2012..."

I just opened my 2002 Cab to have with some late afternoon red sauce on vermicelli with a nice, crunchy garlic bread. Wow. Wow. Wow. I wish I had more! (October 4, 2008)
