Round Pond Estate
Rutherford Cabernet Sauvignon
Rutherford, Napa Valley, California, USA
A blend of 98% Cab Sauv & 2% Petit Verdot, deep Ruby with aromas of dark berry fruits, oak and spice. On the palate flavors of black cherry and blackberry with black pepper, cacao and licorice notes, good acidity and integrated oak. Fine tannins, long finish ending with fruit, oak and mineral character. Good now, will age!

I’m going to spare you the gory details, but we will be breaking tiles again tomorrow. Told the plumber that his services are no longer required.
Perrotti-Brown gave this 89 pts - it’s a travesty of justice. This stuff represents all things good from Napa. Enticing nose of kirsch, coffee and nutmeg. Sleek, bold tannins combine with deep, black fruits. Nice, well-behaved finish with a sweet balsamic reduction. Loving this bad boy...

We forgot to post this on Sunday. I just glanced at AG’s notes on this vintage, and he nailed it. The nose is luscious, while the palate is pliable, with pristine oak treatment. Regal tannins compliment moderate acidity. This is an improvement on the 07 vintage.

Cabernet Sauvignon with a touch of Petite Verdot. Rutherford to the core. Delicious

Excellent California Cab. Rich but nuanced and never overbearing.
