Hewitt Vineyard
Rutherford Cabernet Sauvignon
Blend of 96% Cabernet Sauvignon & 4% Petit Verdot, deep Ruby with aromas of red fruits, espresso, cedar and sweet notes. On the palate flavors of black raspberry, strawberry and ripe black cherry with notes of cacao, vanilla and dried herbs. Fine rich tannins, long finish ending with fruit, cacao, spice and oaky earthy mineral notes.

May 20th, 2022Checking in on this. More tobacco, earth, and, espresso than I recall. I recall purity of red and black fruit. Rating a little lower, but nothing out of place. Evolution going well. Think in a transition period. Check back in a year. ttyt

Oct 20th, 202395-96. Have drank a lot of good wine lately and this is near the top of the list. I thinks it’s been at least a year since having it and it just keeps delighting. Excited for next few years. Have 14 bottles left. @James K @J Greene let’s figure out a tasting for this soon.

Dec 16th, 2022Spectacular wine. Rich but balanced with layers of flavor that go on forever. Aired for two hours and opened beautifully.

Mar 30th, 2022Incredible. Black cherry, licorice, coffee, dark chocolate, and spice. The only bad thing is the bottles are so honking big, it barely fits in my fridge.
