Hailing from the esteemed Tietjen Vineyard in Rutherford Napa Valley, the Elyse Cabernet Sauvignon 2003 is a wine that commands attention. This 90-point-rated gem showcases the distinct character of its terroir, offering a rich tapestry of dark fruit flavors underpinned by subtle notes of earth and spice. Its depth and complexity are not only a testament to the exceptional 2003 vintage but also to the meticulous vineyard practices of Napa Valley’s Tietjen Vineyard. While the wine is truly a delight to savor on its own, it shines when paired with a hearty beef stew or a decadent chocolate dessert. Considering its quality and the prestige of its origin, it’s a smart buy that delivers well beyond its peers.
