Also made from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon Rutherford is a 600-case cuvee displaying plenty of loamy soil, spicy new oak, and sweet red and black currant fruit characteristics, deep, concentrated flavors, and generous body as well as length. It should drink well for 15-20 years.
Coming from the advertising world, David Del Dotto has a creative personality, but behind the sizzle is someone who is obviously committed to producing world-class wines. In the process, he has built an empire with his acquisitions of vineyard land on Howell Mountain, Rutherford, Pritchard Hill, and Sonoma Coast. His extravagant venues in both Napa and St. Helena are eye-popping experiences to say the least. Del Dotto’s new group of wines include some stunning offerings that clearly merit the marketing hype.
