$90.00 per bottle
Description:
The 2003 Rudd Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon is the third vintage produced from the newly re-planted vineyards of our benchland site in Oakville. The vineyard is planted in very rocky, red volcanic soils using low-vigor rootstock, in a high-density, 4’ x 4’ vine spacing. The Cabernet Sauvignon for this wine came from the highly regarded Bordeaux clone #337 and two intensely-flavored, historic California clones, #4 and #15. The Cabernet Franc is clone #1, the Merlot is clone #181, the Petit Verdot is clone #400, and the Malbec is from clones #9 and #595. All of these low-yielding clones were planted because they consistently give high quality and are very effective at expressing our Oakville terroir.
