Product Description

This Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon offers layers of flavor, reflecting its varied terroir. Aromatic violets, tobacco, cocoa and bright red berry character leads into rich, concentrated fruit flavors of raspberries, currants and succulent black cherries. The ripe fruit flavor is juxtaposed with natural acidity for a balanced, well-structured wine with medium tannins and a supple finish.Enjoy this wine with grilled and roasted meats, strong cheeses or pasta with a hearty red sauce.There was a lot of irony in the 2003 vintage it was wet when growers were expecting dry conditions and hot when they expected cooler weather. The erratic weather during the 2003 growing season and harvest made it a challenging season for viticulturalists in the Napa Valley. The climate variations ultimately produced fewer grapes with dense color and concentrated fruit flavors. At harvest the grapes had high sugars, high acid, and low pH, which created big yet balanced wines of memorable quality.The 2003 Irony Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is a bold and complex wine, which reflects the melding of unique characteristics from prime vineyards in several different appellations. Grapes from the Yountville area experience more of the cool marine influence from San Pablo Bay, which results in delicate floral aromas and rich, concentrated fruit flavors. Loose soils the infamous Rutherford AVA dust, foggy mornings, hot, windy afternoons and decent water retention produce grapes with ripe, juicy flavors and earthy aromas. The higher elevation of Atlas Peak area vineyards provides cool temperatures, consistent sun exposure and porous volcanic soils, which result in bright fruit flavors, high acid levels and big tannins that contribute balance and structure to this well-built Cabernet Sauvignon.
