The 2003 Cabernet Sauvignon Oakville, from Clones 4 and 337 (the same vineyard source), sees a small amount of Taransaud barrels along with the Darnajou. It offers wonderful sweetness and opulence, and could be a Pomerol if it weren’t 100% Cabernet Sauvignon. Its deep purple color is accompanied by a big sweet nose of creme de cassis, espresso roast, smoke, licorice, and hints of caramel and coffee. Full-bodied, unctuously textured and opulent, with great purity, depth, and texture, this wine should drink well young, but age beautifully for 15 or more years. Tel.
