2023 The David Rutherford Estate 750ml

59% Rutherford Estate Cabernet Sauvignon, 29% Rutherford Estate Cabernet Franc, and 12% Merlot from our Rutherford Estate Vineyard

Tasting Notes:

Our Rutherford Estate property has 30 year old vines. The David represents a classic blend of the three Bordeaux varietals we grow at the Rutherford Estate: Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, and Merlot. In fact, this wine is reflective of classic old-world Bordeaux wines. The majority of the blend is Cabernet Sauvignon and the beautiful cassis aromatics are evidence of that. However, the white pepper spice and blueberry qualities of the Cabernet Franc (from the 7 Rows Cabernet Franc), as well as the ripe red fruit of the Merlot, make this a truly unique wine and a wonderful representation of our Rutherford Estate. This very limited ten barrel blend is aged in all new French Oak.  Should age well for 10-15 years.
