| 2003 Lokoya Cabernet Sauvignon Diamond Mountain: The dense purple-colored 2003 Cabernet Sauvignon Diamond Mountain is the softest, most flamboyant of this trio. It possesses a plump, seductive perfume of black currants, cherry liqueur, raspberries, plums, and figs, great ripeness, sweet tannin, full-bodied, powerful flavors, a silky palate, and an alluring voluptuousness. Drink it over the next 12-15+ years. Christopher Carpenter, the current winemaker for this property has succeeded admirably with the 2003s, which are almost as spectacular as the 2002s. They are all indigenous yeast fermented, 100% Cabernet Sauvignons aged 18 or more months in French oak. Wine Advocate #162 (Dec 2005) Robert Parker 92 points Drink 2005-2020.
