2020 Rudd Oakville, Samantha's Cabernet Sauvignon, California, USA

Description

A splendid Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon crafted by Rudd winemaker Natalie Bath. Harvested between 5 September and 15 September, aged 22 months, in 43% new French oak. Alluring red currants, dried florals, and dusty minerals. Restrained at first, and very compact with fine-grained tannins that build along with rich boysenberry fruit flavours, which reach a crescendo after a good amount of air teases them out and reveals nuances of liquorice and herbs. A firm backbone of good acidity makes for a sleeper wine. Hold this until 2024 and enjoy over 5-7 years.

Drink 2024 - 2029
