Decanted for sediment. Would have benefited from standing first. This took a couple of hours to open up and shine. Don't know if was vintage or Winery. Not too familiar with Rutherford Ranch. By the end a solid, fragrant Napa cab. Very good value at $17.00 each.

I'm more of a Left Bank, complex, refined wine lover. But, this was just spot-on and super enjoyable with a grilled prime NY strip. Nothing complicated... just salt, pepper, nice crust, and a really bold, in your face Napa cab with surprisingly well integrated tannins.

Matured quite well. Rounded flavor profile with no residual tannins. Excellent wine for the money and perfect time to drink.

Average, medium bodied, good tannins, but lack fruit flavours I would expect from a Napa Cab.

Moderate sweetness followed by smooth tannin. A surprise at such a low cost.
