Note di degustazione
Deep crimson with some development. Arresting, medium intensity aroma. Very sweet palate entry. Good smooth attack with a nice twist but a suggestion of coconut. Long. Competent. But not especially dry and savoury. (JR)

There are about 500 cases of the 2002 Cabernet Sauvignon, which was aged in both American and French wood (one-half new). The Screaming Eagle of South Australia, it possesses great purity, layers of fruit, enormous volume and intensity, and at the same time, it is strikingly elegant and well-proportioned. This stunningly pure Cabernet tastes like pure creme de cassis intermixed with licorice and oak. It should drink well for 15-16 years, but who will be able to hold onto it that long?
