The 2003 growing season started late and was marked by wet weather. A hot summer and higher-than-average temperatures in mid-September jump started harvest, which ended in October just four weeks after it began. This wonderful vintage produced multi-layered, richly textured wines.
The 2003 growing season produced an ever-evolving, classic California Cabernet Sauvignon that has come into its own with age. Exotic notes of tea and cigar box open to a silky palate with layers of red fruits, acidity and soft tannins. Though the oak has transitioned into a supporting role for the strawberry and raspberry flavors, the 2003 Jordan Cabernet Sauvignon still tastes quite young. Expected to be an early maturing vintage, 2003 continues to defy aging with its elegance and seamless balance. Enjoy now through 2024 in 750mL and 2027 for magnum bottles.
Download Tasting NotesJordan Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is considered a great choice for food pairing due to its balance of fruit, acidity and lower alcohol. This Bordeaux style blend of Cabernet Sauvignon is very versatile on the dinner table, from meat and poultry dishes to pastas and grilled vegetables.
