Found this in the Devon store as I was leaving. I thought it might be a mistake but I don't think so. Upon doing a little research, I saw the 2002 is listed at $45 but this 2003 is $15. Parker gives 2003 North Coast Cabs a 93 and 2002 a 95 - so that can't be it. It is listed as a CS but I don't know what the "original" price was.
Any thoughts?

Interesting outfit. Go to http://www.napawineco.com/napawineco.html to learn a bit more but essentially sounds like a 130 year old warehouse that decided in 1993 to become a low volume crush facility making varietals. The name dates back to before Napa was Napa so they must have had the rights a long time. Not surprisingly there's one bottle in Allegheny Co., none in Butler, but 5 in Indiana Co. so I'll have to order but the ratings sound like it's worth it. I'm sure the good people making reds in Cal. would be happy to know that drinkers considr a run-of-the-mill cab to be a good thing!
