This expression comes from the Riboli familya's 16 acres in the Rutherford District. Fennel and blueberry combine with deep espresso for a structured, mighty red as sweet oak and dark cherry impart goodness on the finish. This vibrant inkypurple wine (just 6% Petit Verdot is added in) is barrel-aged 24 months in 70% new French oak. A classic.
Wine Tasting Notes
Riboli Family Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon shows layers of ripe fruit flavors, in particular, wild berry, black cherry, and ripe plum. Aromas of sweet oak, vanilla, and spice complement the equally fruit-driven nose. A small percentage of Petit Verdot adds structure and body. Soft tannins frame the full, round mouth. The wine is readily accessible but may benefit from several years of cellaring. Each bottle is a celebration of the many generations of our winemaking family.
94% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Petit Verdot
