2002
From Sloan Estate
Prestigious Napa Valley winery specializing in premium wines and exceptional terroir expression.
The 2002 SLOAN Proprietary Red reveals a deep, saturated ruby hue and an expressive bouquet of blackberry, cassis, and dark cherry, interwoven with notes of cedar, graphite, and floral undertones. On the palate, it is full-bodied and layered, offering a harmonious balance of ripe black fruit, refined tannins, and vibrant acidity. Hints of mocha, tobacco, and baking spices emerge as the wine opens, leading to a long, persistent finish marked by freshness and finesse. The wine’s structure and complexity promise continued evolution in the cellar, while its elegance and concentration make it a standout among Napa Valley reds from this exceptional vintage[2][3][5].
