Product Notes

Rutherford Hill Barrel Select Red Blend is a luxurious wine crafted from the best grapes of Napa Valley. This red wine blend is made from a mix of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Syrah, sourced from some of the most iconic vineyards in Napa Valley. The wine is aged in oak barrels, adding a rich complexity of flavors and aromas to the already bold profile. The nose reveals a mixture of dark fruits, caramel, and vanilla, which is followed by a graceful palate of black currant, plum, and baking spices. The velvety tannins and long finish make this wine a luxurious treat, perfect for any special occasion.
