Rutherford Vintners

Scarecrow

Rutherford Cabernet Sauvignon 2013

+2 hour decant(some chunky sediment). A striking dark purplish magenta color. On the nose: dark fruit, dried herbs, forest floor, chocolate, anise. Taste: silky, opulent wine that maintains its elegance with blackberry/some dark cherry, currants, dark chocolate, earth, minerals, and a graphite espresso long finish. YUM! Drinking well with the decant and time to go. — 6 days ago

Freemark Abbey

Bosché Estate Cabernet Sauvignon 2003

Double decant for sediment(lots of chunky sediment) and pour. A remarkable dark purplish magenta color. On the nose: expressive perfumed notes of cherry, currants, dark olives, worn leather, wet forest floor, smoked meat. Taste: silky, savory, elegant wine with fading dried cherries, tobacco, dark chocolate, bell pepper, earth, and a nice mineral, espresso medium plus finish. YUM! Never disappointed with well aged Bosche or Sycamore wines — 2 months ago

Monsieur Ètain Rutherford Cabernet Sauvignon 2009

Another well aged M.-Etain.
I bought a case on release at retail $120.00 OTD.,
That’s long gone but this was worth the extra $70 on Auction.

Rutherford Hill

Napa Valley Merlot 2021

The Rutherford Hill Napa Merlot (2021) reveals a deep ruby core with subtle garnet reflections, suggesting youthful vibrancy with potential for short-term development. The nose is precise and layered, offering blackberry and raspberry fruit interwoven with cedar nuances, indicative of measured oak influence.

On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied, with light acidity that enlivens the fruit profile while maintaining balance.

Tannins are fine-grained and unobtrusive, supporting a bright structural framework that lends clarity and poise.

The finish is clean and persistent, marked by freshness rather than weight, making this a versatile companion to dishes such as roasted chicken, grilled salmon, or semi-hard cheeses.
