A bit thin for both the vintage and 'reserve' designation (in WA, it actually means something) and lacking any interesting aged nuances, but otherwise a very drinkable bottle of wine.

While admitting that the 02 vintage and word 'Reserve' would typically imply more weight, this medium bodied cab showed very well at a Superbowl party where all the other wines were younger and less ambitious. Good fruit with balanced acid and tannins, it's probably nearing peak but should hold here nicely for a few years.

Last of a case. Drinking well, tannins now very muted. Wouldn't recommend keeping much longer.

Perhaps past it's prime. Not much good to report here.
