Lot #658. Hundred Acre Cabernet Sauvignon Estate Kayli Morgan Vineyard 2002

Description: Consists of 1 Magnum, 1.5L
Score: 100 RP.
"This fabulous wine from the eastern hillsides of northern Napa Valley, not far from the Eisele Vineyard, boasts an inky/blue/purple color as well as an extraordinary perfume of mulberries, black cherries, cassis, graphite, forest floor and charcoal, an astonishing texture, a full-bodied opulence and extraordinary richness and length. It is a modern day legend that tastes even younger than it did 7-10 years ago. These wines have an amazing ability to firm up and become even richer and more complex, which is exactly what great winemaking and terroir can do. Kudos to Jason Woodbridge for another sensational wine . . . . It will last for at least another 20-25 years, perhaps longer. In each of my tastings of the 2002 Cabernet Sauvignon Kayli Morgan, the wine has gotten better and better, and that has been true of nearly every vintage of Hundred Acre I have tasted since the debut 2000. The 2002 was rated 94-96 from barrel, 98 in February 2005 from bottle, and now, the magic three-digit score." Wine Advocate #201, Jun 2012
