Elodian Cabernet Sauvignon

Elodian Cabernet Sauvignon Wine Details
Price: $37.00 per bottle

Description: 2003 was an interesting vintage due to the fluctuations throughout. Warm temperatures in February encouraged early budbreak, then rain in March and April slowed things down and reduced crop set in Merlot and Zinfandel. In May, the warm weather returned, and Cabernet thrived. Despite hot weather in June and July the grapes were harvested in September and October and generally had long hangtimes due to cooler weather in August. 2003 Napa Cabs tend to have ample tannins, along with elegant fruit structure that gave nearly every vineyard perfect balance. The 2003 Elodian Cabernet is filled with bright cherry, green olive, complex French oak nuances and fine Cabernet tannins, making it a delightful addition to dinner.
