TASTING NOTES

Chocolate cherry, anise, and zesty red cherry are lifted on the nose. The palate is lively with blueberry and ripe plum, with light fresh turned earth adding complexity. Soft, rounded tannins give a poised, refined finish.


WINE ANALYSIS

Blend: 100% Cabernet Sauvignon
Aging: 18 months in 100% New French Oak
Alcohol: 14.8%

Rutherford has a higher radiant value than any other area in Napa because it sits at the widest point in Napa Valley and therefore spends more time in the sun. The extra sunshine combined with the Franciscan marine soil, volcanic deposits, and run off soil from the Mayacamas Mountains gives the wines a powdery tannin texture that adds to the signature “Rutherford Dust” note.
