January 16, 2022 - Served by the glass. Quality fruit, captivating presentation full of mineral finesse and good taste presenting notes of blueberries and pure cocoa. Watery texture in the mouth with tamed tannins and a fresh acidity. Not without structure but on the elegant and rich side. For wines like this Rutherford is so special to me. Apparently the Chilean founders are still in charge. Nearby neighbors of Frog’s Leap winery. Class must be paid on demand.
Servido por copas. Fruta de calidad, presentación cautivadora llena de finura mineral y buen gusto con notas a arándanos azules y cacao puro. Textura acuosa en boca con unos taninos domados y una fresca acidez. No exenta de estructura pero en el lado elegante y abundante. Por vinos como éste Rutherford es tan especial para mí. Al parecer los fundadores chilenos siguen al mando. Vecinos cercanos de Frog's Leap. La clase hay que pagarla previa demanda.
