Yes, there is a difference in flavor between two cigars with different wrappers that would otherwise be identical. Due to varying filler strengths and wrapper strengths, the amount of these flavor differences or their prominence can vary.

Padron2000's aren't expensive cigars, I suggest you pick up two identical sizes, ideally the corona so you can get some flavor off of it, one natural and one maduro, the next time you are at your B&M. Another good candidate is the Fuente 858 with a natural wrapper (cameroon) and a maduro wrapper.
