    Chateau St. Jean 2002 Cinq Cepages Cabernet Sauvignon (Sonoma County)

    Aloof and tannic now. It's very dry, and those tannins lock in and cry out for something to melt them. It's best to decant this wine many hours in advance of drinking it, but it should develop well over the next eight to ten years.
