Tasting Notes

Deep garnet in color, this wine captivates with saturated aromas of dark red fruit - red plum, cherry, and currant - layered with a faint lavender note and a subtle floral lift. A distinctive Rutherford Dust character anchors the nose, lending both depth and a clear sense of site. On the palate, flavors of cherry confit and red plum unfold over youthful, fine-grained tannins, with the signature Rutherford Dust profile carrying through the mid-palate. The finish is persistent and lingering, with flavors that continue to resonate well after the wine leaves the palate.

      Vintage Notes
      A near ideal vintage, 2022 produced exceptionally high-quality fruit. Winter began with ample rains and led to cool weather patterns during flowering, which supported naturally limited vine yields. A mild summer set the stage for even ripening, with veraison appearing in early July. A cool, maritime-influenced August supported a foundation of bright, natural acidity and slow maturity, resulting in beautifully complex flavors and aromas. Unprecedented warm weather following Labor Day accelerated maturity of the grapes and necessitated judicious harvest decisions to ensure the fruit retained its integrity and quality.
