Here is another excellent 2003 California Cabernet at a very reasonable price.The review says drink this now through 2009... I say why wait?

Iron Horse T-bar-T Cabernet Sauvignon 2003
Alexander Valley, California $37
We Bought a Bunch $29.99
What the Wine Critics Thought: Wine Enthusiast 93 Points
A beautiful wine, pure and gentle yet powerful. Softer than Napa, maybe earthier, with lush red cherry and vanilla cream flavors sprinkled with a dash of crème de cassis and dusty cocoa. The sweet, toasty caramel from oak char shows on the finish. Drink now-2009. – S.H.

What We Thought: The expressive nose features aromas of cassis, black cherry, cedar and dark chocolate. A very smooth, medium-bodied palate displays tart black cherry and blackberry flavors along with super supple tannins that keep it soft right through the finish.
