Last of the blind Napa Valley Mountain reds. Dark and deep purplish red. Thick and layered nose with notes of dark mountain berries and sweet spices. Still a baby through out, from the nose through the palate. Heavy chewy tannins (8/10) and full bodied. Very dark and layered palate with notes of purple flowers, bramble berries, black berries, cassis and dark crushed gravel. Long and lingering finish. Built as a big boy mountain Cabernet, definitely worth it. Drink from 2019 till 2039. (94+) | Release price is $135.

Coming up in their next release Rudius will be donating 10% of all sales to help aide those affected by the fires across Northern California. Beside being amazing wines this is also an amazing cause. I will let you guys know as soon as I do when they set it up.

Both bold and easy on the palette. The incense is pleasant. It fills the mouth well. I might put this wine in the $70-$90 price range, yet the taste is quite fulfilling and we’re not left thinking the price was unreasonable.

Not seeing the $100.00 price tag, $135.00 on Release probably the most disappointing 98 point wine I’ve had.
So Many $50-$75 out perform this one
How Jeb gave this a 98+ I have no idea
Any Rivers Marie cab between $100-$135.00 will blow this away, not mention Mike Smiths wines
