Duckhorn Vineyards, Rutherford (Napa Valley, California) Cabernet Sauvignon 2014

May 1, 2018

By Robert Whitley

  Duckhorn’s Rutherford Cabernet Sauvignon from the 2014 vintage is a big-time show-stopper. On the nose it shows notes of cedar, graphite and lead pencil, following by hints of violets and spice. On the palate it’s a muscular wine that is richly layered, with impressive depth and structure. The finish is beautiful, begging another glass.
