Colgin, IX Estate, Cabernet Sauvignon--Vintage 2002
Napa Valley
In original wooden case
"The 2002 IX Proprietary Red Estate (75 Cabernet Sauvignon, 14 Merlot, 9 Cabernet Franc, and 2 Petit Verdot) offers up wonderful scents of Asian soy sauce intermixed with creosote, smoked herbs, blackberries, and cassis. There is a Bordeaux structure super-imposed on a wine of compelling intensity, richness, and purity. Spicy, incense-like notes also emerge from this distinctive effort. Unlike the Cariad or Tychson Hill, the IX cuvee has a boatload of tannin to shed. Give it 4-5 years of cellaring and drink it over the following 20-25 years." Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #157 (Feb 2005)
