Description
2008 Cuvée Rothchild from Tayson Pierce Estate Wines is a collaboration of winemaker Jeff Ames and winery owner/winemaker Eric J. Rothchild of Rutherford. This unique blend is made from Rutherford valley floor Cabernet Sauvignon and Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon with a touch of Lake Cynthia Merlot stored in new French Taransaud oak barrels for 18 months. This is a new project between Ames and Rothchild which is sure to cellar well for 5 to 10 years and continue to improve as it ages.
