The 2003 vintage started with a very warm March giving the vines a boost to start off their growing season. This strong start proved valuable as the summer’s weather pattern was cooler than normal and the grapes were slow to ripen. Then September and October brought beautiful, warm weather, a classic ingredient of great vintages in the Napa Valley. The grapes responded and by the beginning of October we were harvesting with exceptional flavors. As a result, 2003 looks to be an excellent year for collectors.
The aroma is concentrated and expresses vanilla, brown sugar and mint. On the palate the wine reveals flavors of boysenberry and espresso richly framed with ripe mountain tannins.
