Taste: Beautiful nose of toasty French oak, warm fruit, mocha and black olive. Medium-full bodied (hallmark of the 2005 vintage), this wine shows outstanding overall structure and balance and great depth of varietal character. Chocolate, blackberry, tobacco and expresso flesh out the midpalate and the wine finishes smooth with notes of cocoa powder and that classic Rutherford “dust".

Cameron Confidential: This is the bottle blend (meaning that it’s one finished wine from one producer and the exact same wine as they will bottle that year) from a high-end, conscientious Rutherford producer truly focused on quality. Their bottling frontlines at $45 on their website and has received 90-92 point scores for the past 3 vintages from the Wine Spectator.

Quite simply one of the best cabs we have ever produced and a steal at $15.
