2016 Rudd Oakville Estate Cabernet Sauvignon 750ml

The deep rich color suggests the wine's density and depth, while its purple-violet egaes are telling of the natural acidity and vivacity. Initially somewhat coy and restrained, the nose blossoms with aeration, developing iron and raspberry notes before showing its true character with cassis - the signature aromatic for Cabernet Sauvignon. Shapely, fine-grained tannins are mouth-filling, while the acidity present gives backbone, direction, and freshness with an integrated and harmonious density. Rated 98 Points Lisa's Staff.
