MORE INFORMATION

Wine Spectator says: "On the lighter side, a refined wine with persistent raspberry and red cherry flavors wrapped in a fine blanket of tannin, the flavors echoing nicely. Drink now through 2005. 392 cases made." H.S.

WINEMAKER'S NOTES
Jacob-Hart has long been the heart of our reserve program. The fruit has distinctive cherry tea notes, with a long, sweet texture to the mouth. Early in the wines life, the aroma of green tea dominates, but as the wine develops, the nose takes on dried cherry, fresh raspberry and brown tea qualities. Most striking is the distinctive feel to the palate of the wine made from Jacob-Hart. I am often asked if there is residual sugar in these wines, as the mouth has such lovely roundness and a velvety texture.
