With respect to the Cabernet Sauvignon program, the 2003 Cabernet Sauvignon Napa includes tiny dollops of Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot. Showing better than it did last year immediately after bottling, it possesses a deep ruby/purple color, terrific fruit, a big, sweet nose of loamy soil, subtle oak, black currants, flowers, and cedar, great finesse and richness, a medium to full-bodied texture, soft tannin, and decent acidity. Drink it over the next 10-15 years.
