2019 Conn Creek 'AVA Series' Cabernet Sauvignon Rutherford
This refined Rutherford Cabernet delivers depth, vibrancy, and structure in perfect harmony. Lush blackberry and red fruit intertwine with notes of cocoa, baking spice, and a touch of fresh mint. The palate is rich yet balanced, with smooth tannins and a lingering, silky finish. A shining example of Rutherford’s signature elegance and power.
