Rutherford Ranch Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve Napa Valley 2019
Fire up those fast-twitch muscles!! Got your phone? Your app? Wow wow wow do we have the deal today!!
OK. Just breeeeeeathe. OK. This is a wine that knocked us out – even at the winery’s $70 price. At $35?? THIRTY-FIVE dollars? For estate-grown Napa cabernet? With a 93 POINT score from the good lads and lasses at Wine Enthusiast? We are backing our truck up, filling our cars and even shoving whatever we can into bike baskets, even stocking up some guy we found with a skateboard and a fanny pack. Holy moly! Napa sexiness priced like this is...astounding!
For those savvy with their Napa Valley history, Rutherford Ranch is the old Round Hill winery (founded 1978), right on Silverado Trail underneath Auberge du Soleil in the heart of Rutherford, which was a serious player in those days and some of the wines are STILL drinking beautifully. Covered with century-old olive trees and newly upgraded facilities, this winery made a delicious, structured, brawny and beautiful, no-brainer classic NAPA CAB in the fantastic 2019 vintage. This is gushing, flowing, cascading waterfalls of cherries and blueberries, heady clove and pepper spice, shaved chocolate, coffee bean and vanilla, cedar and tobacco, pencil lead...and...AND! Tremendous depth - and just one heck of a lot going on here. Will age spectacularly for years to boot! Terrifyingly easy to make disappear! Speaking of disappearing...Napa cabs like this are always a Last Bottle hyper-fave...this will go fast, fast, fast! Hope you grab some – get more than you think you will want!
Rich and vibrant with classic Rutherford Cabernet tannins, dark cherry mingled with toasty oak, sweet oak and sweet sage lingering on the palate
