Description
Our vineyard resides on a small patch of the famed Rutherford Dust, and for Premiere Napa Valley, we chose to create an offering that showcases all that Rutherford Cabernet is prized for.
Selecting from our best barrels from the front and back blocks of the estate, we crafted a blend is is 98.8% Cabernet Sauvignon, kissed with 1.2% Petit Verdot. It is elegant and approachable, with aromas of deep, dark fruit, spices, lavender and dried herbs, flavors that are multilayered and complex, and a finish that is long and lingering.
