2003 Cabernet Sauvignon
|
|
92 pts. Cellar Selection - Wine Enthusiast; 94 pts. Gold Medal - Beverage Testing Institute. The 2003 vintage is a remarkable 100% Cabernet Sauvignon wine that seduces you with its dark crimson color. Intense dried fruit aromas precede candied fruit and allspice. Medium tannins gracefully lead you on a journey of many nuance. Twenty-four months in new French Haute Futaie oak barrels adds a dimension of toasty vanilla. After bottling, the wine continued its development in the bottle for four years prior to its release, making it perfect for enjoyment now. With ideal storage, the 750ml bottles of this wine will continue to age beautifully through 2014. |
