Pride Mountain Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve 2003 (9 bts) Reserve Claret 2003 (3 bts) R. Parker, 97 pts. 06/13 Napa Note on Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve: "In contrast, the 2003 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve (14.7% natural alcohol) is an equal part blend of Napa and Sonoma fruit. There is no doubting the Cabernet Sauvignon in this wine! Classic notes of cedarwood, underbrush, licorice, black currants and tobacco leaf are textbook definitions of this varietal. The color is even denser than the Reserve Claret's, and the bouquet offers additional notes of Chinese black tea. Elegant with great acid as well as stunning concentration, richness and a full-bodied mouthfeel, this is another world-class effort that pushes the envelope toward perfection. It is a remarkable success for the vintage, partly due to the fact that the extremes of weather experienced on the valley floor were less problematic for these high altitude sites." R. Parker, 99 pts. 06/13 12 bottles
