Going through the wine cellar I found this dusty bottle and I decided to give it a try. Some improvement over the years, but not much really. Still exhibiting good rich dark cherry color. Surprisingly very little bricking effects in its color. That being said, this 03 is nothing special, nothing great.

Opened for a New Year's Eve dinner. The wine was very good and seemed to be at its peak. Beautiful red color with aromas of red fruit, with some oak. Tasted red cherries, some leather and oak. The tannins were present but diminishing. It was a great bottle for a fun night.

This is one of my favorite wineries - compared vertically with 2002 and came in second place. A very nice cabernet for $40 - great color, smooth, easy drinking

This wine is okay, but nothing to write home about. For $35 there are better choices.
