2002 Napa Valley
Cabernet Sauvignon
This well-structured, medium-bodied Cabernet exhibits subtlety and finesse along with extracted fruit and mature tannins. Aromas and flavors of cherry, cassis, plum, eucalyptus and licorice carry through the palate with a hint of dark chocolate on the lingering finish. Serve with prime rib, filet, lamb or game birds such as pheasant and duck. Also a good complement to cheeses such as camembert or brie.

Our 2002 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon was the first wine ever released by Black Stallion Winery. Because of this, it will always hold a special place in our hearts. Our goal for our Cabernet was to create a wine of balanced flavors and structure, ultimately a great food wine. To achieve this we blended it with few classic red blending varietals; Cabernet Franc adds bright fruit characteristics, Malbec brings a chocolate, spicy note and Petite Verdot, which adds nice structure to the
wine. Being that the predominate grape in this wine is Cabernet Sauvignon from the Oak Knoll District, it displays the elegant, well-balanced character representative of this dynamic growing region.
