A textbook Rutherford Cabernet, this wine opens with a remarkable punch, our Cabernet Sauvignon is farmed in the famous “Rutherford Dust” that yields small, yet intense clusters from well-balanced vines. The ideal growing conditions in the vineyard allow our Bordeaux varietals to reach full maturity on the vine without taking on the green, leafy taste of under-ripe fruit.

A textbook Rutherford Cabernet, this wine opens with a remarkable punch. Intense aromas of raspberry, plum, dried herbs, violet and lavender waft from the bottle. The palate is bold, yet refined with intricate layers of dark fruit, blackberry, and clove that persist on the finish. This wine is well-suited to pairing with grilled portobello mushroom, venison, or steak. It will continue to evolve beautifully for 7-12 years.

In the heart of the Foley Johnson Rutherford Estate, our Cabernet Sauvignon is farmed in the famous “Rutherford Dust” that yields small, yet intense clusters from well-balanced vines. The ideal growing conditions in the vineyard allow our Bordeaux varietals to reach full maturity on the vine without taking on the green, leafy taste of under-ripe fruit. The grapes were harvested between September 10 and October 20, 2021. The wine went through 100% malolactic fermentation and aged for 27 months in 40% new French oak before going into bottle on May 23, 2023.
