description: One of the more dependable bottlings from Napa, the '03 is a lovely wine. Rich and balanced, it offers intense cassis, cherry-pie filling and coffee flavors, with a delicious overlay of new oak. The mountain tannins are firm and dusty, but very finely structured, ripe and sweet. Beautiful now, and should develop well for the next eight years or so.
variety: Cabernet Sauvignon
designation: Spaulding Vineyard Reserve
