2003 Arctos

72% Cabernet Sauvignon ó 10% Merlot ó 8% Cabernet Franc

7% Petit Verdot ó3% Malbec

217 Cases Produced

A Cabernet Sauvignon dominated blend, Arctos balances out our Ursa concept by bringing you a more masculine, intense, and driven expression of red wine. This is the first wine we proudly offer with 100% Stillwater Creek Vineyard fruit. Big and rich, Arctos matches well with hearty cheese and rustic breads or as a satisfying accompaniment to grilled meats, and will easily age for 15+ years. Arctos fans act quickly - there is significantly less available this year!
