Description
Perhaps the surest sign of a wine’s character is that it has the ability to captivate, transport and ultimately draw you back to its source: this is Rutherford. The dry-farmed and organically grown grapes that make up this single-barrel selection of 96% Cabernet Sauvignon and 4% Cabernet Franc come from a few precious acres on the western bench of its namesake appellation. Truly a wine of time and place, Rutherford acknowledges its origin, grabs a moment in time and locks the two in a bottle.
