The Rutherford Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon is crafted exclusively from the esteemed Rutherford Bench terroir, sourced from hand-selected vineyard parcels owned by Beaulieu Vineyard. Aged for 21 months in 100% French oak barrels (80% first-fill), this wine delivers an exquisitely bright and vibrant blackcurrant aroma, reminiscent of a top-tier Saint-Julien from an exceptional vintage.
Echoing its Bordeaux counterparts, it unveils the signature ‘Rutherford Dust’ character—an enticing blend of summer vineyard earthiness, juicy blackberries, and wild raspberries freshly picked from the vine. On the palate, it boasts a rich, velvety texture, with decadent, well-integrated tannins, all elevated by lively fruit concentration and impeccable balance.
Already irresistibly drinkable, this legendary wine also promises extraordinary aging potential, evolving beautifully in the cellar for decades to come. A true classic—ready to savor now or to be treasured for years.
