The 2015 Reserve showcases what stunning flavors can come from our Rutherford estate vineyards. The aromatics explode out of the glass with fresh, ripe boysenberry and warm wild blackberry balanced by mocha, cream, and hints of cedar. Deep, dark, juicy flavors of cassis and black cherries on entry are balanced by espresso, berry pie, and baking spice. The lavish finish unfolds with deep, round tannins, balanced by jubilant acidity with nuances of espresso and mocha.
96% Cabernet Sauvignon, 2% Petit Verdot, 2% Merlot
Accolades
"The 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve has turned out beautifully. Dark, sumptuous and powerful, the 2015 is a superattractive wine. Sweet red cherry, rose petal, mint and pomegranate are woven together in a racy Cabernet with no hard edges, good freshness for the year and terrific overall balance. Silky, polished tannins add to the wine's considerable appeal.... it is arguably the wine that best captures the personality of this Rutherford site." 93 points, Antonio Galloni, March 2018
Winemaker Notes
Once a lot is designated Reserve, only the very best barrels selected from a rigorous barrel by barrel selection of those lots will make the final blend. Dense and dark, the Reserve is beautifully textured and shows the incredible potential of our site.
