Patricia Cabernet-Sauvignon - 2002 - Brown Brothers
Ref: A117702
The 2002 Patricia Cabernet Sauvignon has flavour intensity and fine tannin structure. Full physiological grape ripeness of this outstanding vintage season has highlighted varietal berry and cassis characters. French oak was used for its contribution to the tannin profile of the wine, and its subtle wood complexity.

The 2002 Patricia Cabernet continues the success of two King Valley vineyards with 36% from Politini and 15% Ray vineyard fruit. Another outstanding vineyard site in North East Victoria is the Gentle Annie vineyard in the Dookie Hills, which has contributed 28%, providing mid-palate flesh and structure. A small percentage of fruit from a new Taylor's vineyard in the Beechworth hills and a dash (8.5%) of Petit Verdot has achieved classic structure and balanced flavours.

This wine presents a saturated, red black colour with enormous richness and concentration. The nose demonstrates ripe characters of red currants and cassis combined with the subtleties of a wine handled with French oak. The palate is concentrated and rich with good length of flavour and well structured acid and firm tannins.

The fruit was harvested in parcels from early March to early April at a Baumé target of 14.5º. Selected parcels of the wine spent between 12 and 15 months in new and one year old French oak barriques before bottling. The wine was bottled with an alcohol of 14.0%, a pH of 3.62, and an acid level of 6.4 gr/L.
