The 2003 bottling, known as "The Ransom" was sourced from the prestigious Oakville Bench in Napa Valley. The grapes were harvested on October 10, 2003 at 25.1 Brix giving us wonderful intensely rich and flavorful flavors. The wine spent 18 months in French Oak before being filtered and bottled. The wine is densely packed with rich blackberry, licorice, pepper and exotic spice flavors while balancing layers of depth and purity. Click here to download an Acrobat PDF version of wine details.
