2003 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon
90 Points - June 2006 "Ripe and cushy with deeply defined fruit aromas that carry enough soft touches that make you want to dig in. Delicate, but daring on the palate, with chocolate notes darkening the cassis and cherry flavors. Very round, and exceedingly mouthfilling." 2006 Edition Exceptional wine, finalist one of the top 70 wines in South America Blood red chromatic intensity, prelude to a very intense nose which, besides the varietal descriptors adds earthy, truffley notes, leather, and tobacco. In the mouth, it is not immense but is fresh and silky, with an enveloping, refreshing fruitiness supported towards the finish by a good tannic scheme. "Elegant" (NG); "pleasant alcoholic quality. structured and ready to drink" (MR).. 2006 International Eastern Wine Competition   Double Gold Metal 2006 Pacific Rim International Wine Competition Gold Medal /Best of Class ($20.00 and above) 2006 Critics Challenge Wine Competition Gold Award Slightly herbal and elegant--very much a Bordeaux-style cabernet. -- Linda Murphy 87 Points - May 15, 2006 "Has a firm layer of bacony toast, but good black, currant, tobacco and briar notes as well." 87 Points -April/May 2006 "Subtle scents of ripe strawberry, tobacco and cedar.
