Limited Edition Dollarhide Ranch Cabernet Sauvignon


	Rich, deep and generous aromas of ripe blackcurrant and berry, cedar, oak and toast. The palate is full and round with ripe berry and plum, complemented by integrated oak, toast, and a hint of chocolate espresso. The wine finishes with fine but firm tannins.		2003 Vintage • download full tech note (.pdf) • Label image (.jpg) • Bottle Image (.jpg) • download Hotsheet (.pdf) • download shelf talker (.pdf) • 2001-2002-2003 6 bottle in wood box 2002 Vintage • download full tech note (.pdf) • Label image (.jpg) • Bottle Image (.jpg) • download shelf talker (.pdf) 2001 Vintage • download full tech note (.pdf) • Label image (.jpg) • Bottle Image (.jpg)

	Awards/Accolades (2002 vintage) “St. Supery has a goldmine in its Dollarhide Ranch Vineyard in northeast Napa Valley. We have raved about the sauvignon blanc from this vineyard, but the full-bodied cabernet is an even more stunning wine. Made entirely of cabernet sauvignon, the 2002 shows off plum and tobacco aromas followed by complex blackberry and cassis flavors. --Tom Marquardt and Patrick Darr, The Capital “Lots to admire in this 100% Cabernet. The tannins are beautiful, gliding like silk and velvet across the palate and carrying ripe blackberry, cherry, spice and sweet oak flavors. Doesn't taste entirely dry; there is some sweetness on the finish, which might direct your pairings possibilities.” --Wine Enthusiast Magazine Gold Medal Pacific Rim Int'l Wine Competition Gold Medal Taster’s Guild Wine Competition Wine of the Week Orange County Register • Chris Knap Awards/Accolades (2001 vintage) 90 Points California Grapevine "Medium-dark ruby; attractive, intense, cedary, spicy, tarrish, dark currant aroma with notes of green olive and vanilla; medium-full to full body; rich, textured, ripe black cherry and dark currant flavors with a velvety mouth fell; firmly structured; full tannin; hard, dry finish; lingering aftertastes. Very highly recommended." Gold Medal Taster's Guild Awards/Accolades (2000 vintage) 88 points Wine Spectator Supple and harmonious, with a tasty core of ripe plum and black cherry fruit, shaded by spice and light cedary oak and finishing with firm, integrated tannins.
