If you haven't had a chance, I recommend trying Peju Winery...this family owned, boutique winery in the Rutherford area of Napa produces a very nice Cab, along with a zin and their Provence which is a nice every day wine.
We opened a 2003 Cab this weekend with our friends for an early Thanksgiving dinner. The 2003 Cab is a library wine, currently on Peju's website at $65/bottle (although it is sold out). The website describes this wine as having aromas of bing cherry, vanilla, clove, blackberry, black pepper, creme de cassis, toast, roasted coffee, fresh herbs and green olive. big, rich and round on the palate, displaying flavors of black cherry accented with toast and campfire notes.
This was a smooth cab that was full of flavor. Put this on your list of wines to try.
If you are in Napa, this is also a nice winery to visit. They have a beautiful tasting room and an area to enjoy a picnic. For more on Peju, visit their website at http://www.peju.com/.

Thank you so much for your kind words about Peju and Peju wines. I have been with Peju for over 9 years and have loved every second of it.
Here is an intersting fact about wine. A Boeing 747 is built and sold quicker than red wine is crushed, bottled, aged and sold.
Thank you again for your kind words and we all look forward to your next visit!

Thank you, Stacee for the comment. Keep making your great wines at Peju and we will continue to stop by and try them. Keep checking the site for future posts.
I really enjoyed my visit to Peju with the other members of this blog. My wife and I recently enjoyed a bottle of your Sauvignon Blanc and the Provence. Look forward to my next trip west.
