Mount Benson Vineyards 2002 Cabernet Sauvignon Aug 04

Typical varietal Cabernet characteristics, tannins are smooth and drying and well matched to the ample-weight distinct fruit which shows blackcurrant, loads of leafy characters, cigar box, cedar and coffee. Consistency is very firm, the structure solid and the complexity agreeable. Considering the vintage conditions in this part of the world in 2002, this is a good result and is rated as Recommended with *** for value.
