2022 Rutherford Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon

Brimming with classic "sauvage" character, this tribute to our western Rutherford benchland terroir opens with fragrant red berries, ripe plum, and hints of violet. The palate is silky with a plush, full-bodied texture highlighting black cherry, cassis, and pomegranate flavors, accented by wild brambleberry, red berry compote, and a hint of darker graphite. Polished and elegant, this wine offers firm tannins supporting with grip, depth, and structure. Bright acidity provides buoyancy and juiciness, keeping everything in balance and leading to a long, persistent Rutheford Dust finish.
