Discover the essence of Rutherford terroir in this distinguished Cabernet Sauvignon. Rich cassis and currant aromatics meld seamlessly with the region's signature dusty minerality, while subtle cedar and black olive undertones add complexity. The wine's silky, luxurious texture creates an elegant finish that exemplifies the depth and refinement Frog's Leap brings to their estate-grown selections.
Dry-farmed Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc grapes are aged 20 months in mostly neutral French oak barrels. Unfined and unfiltered. A rather dark, meaty, and savoury expression from this iconic Rutherford Estate helmed by founder and proprietor John Williams. Opaque ruby in colour shows black olive, dusty earth, and graphite. Medium-bodied and intensely perfumed on the palate, wit builds in elegance, almost defying its rather muscular aromatic profile. Fresh, balanced, quite complex, and quite cellar-worthy.
One of the founding practitioners of organic and dry farming in Napa Valley, Frog's Leap offers a classic approach to Cabernet Sauvignon. Along with flavors of black currant and blackberry, this wine offers lingering spices, lightly tactile tannins and mouthwatering acidity. The wine is both pleasing and perfect for a range of foods from savory mushrooms and risotto, to grass fed beef.
