Note di degustazione
The medium to full-bodied 2003 Cabernet Sauvignon Herb Lamb Vineyard displays notes of lavender, forest floor, red and black currants. Fleshy and round with good purity and a 30- to 35-second finish, this open-knit, complex, fully mature red can be drunk over the next 7-8 years. When Colgin’s 2003s were made, winemaker Mark Aubert was working with Bordeaux consultant Dr. Alain Raynaud. Both remember 2003 as a year of small yields with a wet spring, a moderate summer, and huge heat spikes during the third week of September. Tel. (707) 963-0999

Deep ruby-red. Deep aromas of black raspberry and mocha, with a suggestion of maple syrup. Densely packed and sweet, with enticing flavors of raspberry, black cherry and minerals. Finishes with substantial ripe tannins.
(15.2% alcohol) Good saturated medium ruby. Roasted black raspberry, mocha, coffee and charred oak, with just a hint of raisining. Dense and rich, with flavors of blackcurrant, tobacco, chocolate and charry oak. Finishes broad and tannic, without quite the consistent sweetness of Col gin's other 2003 barrel samples.
