The color of this wine is a deeply rich burgundy that coats the glass. The bouquet reveals a complexity that starts with a Bordeaux-like earthiness and opens to reveal a touch of saddle leather, cigar-box cedar, a hint of anise and cranberry. The cranberry reigns on the palate with a dash of sour cherry. The tannins and acidity of the wine indicate longevity. We suggest pairing it with hearty cheeses and meats, or, better yet a combination of the two - try a butter and blue cheese melt over a fi...

Winemaker: Susan Meyer
An antithetical Cabernet, the 2003 RustRidge Estate Cabernet is full of contrast and complexity. The bright red, cherry-candy color appears too fun to even begin to denote the sophistication of this wine and foreshadows the union of opposites that will pervade the senses. The nose offers warm black current and cool cherry cream with a sprinkle of cocoa powder. Underneath lies a hint of finely integrated oak. The texture is soft and supple, but with fine-grain, velvety tannins on the finish. Dry ...

The 2004 Estate Zinfandel greets you with aromatics of classic briar fruit and an intriguing touch of strawberry leading to vibrant flavors of red fruit. The mouth feel is elegant and satiny smooth with a long and silky finish. This is a classic claret-style Zinfandel.

The bouquet reveals ripe dark cherries and spice with hints of anise and chocolate and flavors of rich ripe black cherries, minerals and spice. A 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, it shows a wonderful balance and structure of extract and acidity which will make the wine a candidate for longevity in the cellar.

(Winery Info & All Wines)
Winemaker: Susan Meyer
The 2004 Estate Cabernet is a cultured wine of elegance and finesse. The classic RustRidge components of cherry and cassis with a touch of anise and blackberry tea are apparent on the nose and palate. Hints of mineral and wild herb flirt on the mid palette. The judicious use of oak and defined acidity combine to produce a cab of intense varietal integrity and food friendliness. This is a very site-specific, terroir-driven Cabernet Sauvignon.

2000 Estate Cabernet Sauvignon

Appellation: Chiles Valley

(Winery Info & All Wines)
Winemaker: Susan Meyer
The initial aromas of this wine are raspberry and vanilla. Further exploration reveals dark chocolate and cocoa aromas that continue through to the palate. The wine finishes with the same flavors of dark chocolate and vanilla and with subtle tannins. This Cabernet was aged for 24 months in French Oak and is soft and velvety and very drinkable now but will continue to develop for another 3-5 years.
