Rich and spicy, intense and concentrated, with full-bodied currant, cedar, blackberry and black licorice fruit that's impeccably balanced and well-structured, offering firm tannins and vibrant acidity. Excellent length. (JL)

With this wine, Kenwood is seriously poaching on Napa Valley cult Cab territory. Shows powerful, intense chocolate, blackberry pie filling and smoky new oak flavors wrapped into soft but complex tannins. yes, the alcohol is high, but the wine is dry and frankly delicious.

There is no question but that this somewhat raw-edged effort is light on refinement, but its lack of manners can be blamed on youth as much as anything else, and its solid, well-defined fruit is a good guarantor that time is on its side. It may never be the picture of grace, but it will make a satisfying foil to hearty meat dishes some five or six years hence.

Notes

"The 2004 vintage marks the 30th release of Kenwood Vineyards’ Artist Series Cabernet Sauvignon. Artist Shepard Fairey began crafting his approach while he was still a student at The Rhode Island School of Design. Fairey believes that art is not only intended for museums and galleries, but should also be an integral part of the visual landscape. His work exemplifies bold, graphic media that stands out amid the urban clutter, beautifying the environment while stimulating the public to think critically. He is one of today’s best-known and most influential street artists. The 'Peace Woman' is a symbolic representation of the peaceful, nurturing side of humanity. Fairey feels that the female trait of empathy should be embraced to maintain a balanced society". - Kenwood Winery
