<H1>2002 CARDINALE -- Cardinale Shopping Cart</H1> <B>$250.00</B> <P> <strong>TASTING NOTES</strong><br> "The 2002 Cardinale opens up with violets, anise, dark fruit and a hint of vanilla on the nose. The palate is rich and velvety with sweet tannins, a tremendous middle body and a Mt. Veeder finish of acid and structure to carry the wine way past swallowing." - Christopher Carpenter, Cardinale Winemaker <br><br> <strong>ACCLAIM</strong><br> 95 Points - "The extraordinary 2002 Cardinale was aged in 100% new French oak. This inky/purple-colored Pauillac-styled red boasts notes of cedar wood, licorice, and black currants along with a smoky, ripe, full-bodied palate impression, terrific concentration, sweet tannin, and multiple layers. It should hit its peak in 2-4 years and last through 2020." - Robert Parker Jr., The Wine Advocate, February, 2005 <br><br> <strong>VINEYARD SOURCING</strong><br> Each vineyard block is selected for the distinct footprint of individual flavor components.
