winemaker's notes:

Highly concentrated, full-bodied and generous. Almost jammy fruit. Lighter in acidity than other vintages, this wine impresses with it's roundness and voluptuousness of structure. The fruit tannins are firm and present. The wine finishes very long.

alcohol by volume: 13.8%
critical acclaim:

"The powerful, strong 2003 Cabernet Sauvignon Howell Mountain may turn out to be richer and fuller than either the 2001 or 2002, an atypical scenario. Its dense blue/purple color is followed by a big, rich nose of cassis, blueberries, minerals, and flowers. Rich, full-bodied, and powerfully tannic, it is classic Dunn stuff. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2030.
Range: 92-94"

The Wine Advocate

" Bright ruby. Very tight and high-pitched on the nose, hinting at cassis, minerals and graphite.Then lush, sweet and impressively concentrated, with densely packed flavors of kirsch, currant and minerals and noteworthy inner-palate energy. Finer-grained than the Napa bottling, with better integration of acids and tannins. Finishes sappy and very long, with a chewy, palate-staining texture.This has delivered on the promise it showed from barrel."
