Tasting Note

Dark colour with violet aspect at the centre suggests concentrated freshness, while the nose immediately offers both floral (violet) and fruit (blackberries and cherries) notes. The 2012 Rudd Oakville Estate Red presents a balanced texture of integrated acid with soft, fleshy tannins. Persistence and freshness are remarkable for the wine's density and ripe aromatics. With aeration, cedar and dry rosemary aromatics become more evident, balanced by floral and fruit notes. A refined, fresh finish is accompanied by a suggestion of warm tobacco smoke and cocoa powder.

Product Notes

Rudd Oakville Estate Red wine is a luxurious and bold expression of the Oakville region in Napa Valley. This exquisite red blend is crafted with precision and care, showcasing the essence of the vineyard's terroir. The wine is a harmonious combination of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc, creating a complex and layered flavor profile. Deep ruby in color, the wine exudes aromas of dark fruits, spices, and earthy notes. On the palate, flavors of blackberry, cassis, and chocolate mingle with silky tannins and a long, lingering finish. Rudd Oakville Estate Red wine is a true testament to the artistry of winemaking.
