With a deep, dusky dark-red color, the wine has expressive, aromas of characteristic Rutherford dust, black cherry, currant and herbs, with intriguing red cherry cocoa powder and dried herb notes. The flavor components of the Bordeaux blend have a rare complexity. The wine’s fruit has juicy, forward flavors in the mouth, with notes of sweet oak vanilla and cocoa. This becomes lush, ripe tannins and balanced acidity, Sequoia Grove’s signature on the palate. With a soft, silky texture and rich mouthfeel, this wine is more approachable than the 2002 release.

2003 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
“Our ’02 Cab was a forward California Cab, it was a powerhouse. The ’03 harvest, however, varied so much compared to the previous year the ’03 Cab naturally followed suit: It’s closer to our Bordeaux style which gives it more elegance, balance and finesse. Being bolder with the fruit and more subtle with the tannins has made it very approachable. It’s soft, rich, silky and decadent” — Michael Trujillo, Winemaker

Pale yellow in color, this wine has an immediate hit to the nose of white peaches. More subtle nutty hints of toasted almonds and cinnamon interplay deliciously with lemon and pear fruit notes. A silky richness with a touch of creamy vanilla washes over the tongue and the sip ends with a well integrated acid backbone that invites another sip.
