The 2016 Rutherford Cabernet Sauvignon was sourced from a host of great estate vineyards in the Rutherford AVA. Toasty oak wraps around roasted figs with black currants on this expressive nose. The palate shows a good combination of weight and texture, with a seamless quality that glides across the mid-palate. Ripe blackberry pie and mocha flavors parade with shades of tar and sandalwood on the palate. Expressive now, this beautiful wine will continue to evolve well for the next fifteen plus years.
