2016 Rusty Red Reserve
Wine Club Price: $39.60$44.00
Rusty Red is a classic Cabernet Sauvignon blend with a bit of Barbera and Syrah. Truly luscious and big, loaded with acidity and supple tannins to stand up to whatever it’s paired with.
An aroma of ripe dark cherry, caramel, pepper and a palate filled with bright acidity and a hint of vanilla to finish.To have known Rusty is to understand why dogs are (hu)man’s best friend. A joy at home or afield, he was one of the best bird pointing Labradors in the country.
A toast to Rusty: He was protective, yet playful; assertive,but not over-bearing; bold yet sweet. Like this wine, he was one of the best.
Cheers!
Rusty Red is a delight to sip with cheese, crackers & meats or just by itself. It has such flavor beyond the aroma you sense nose to the glass swirl. It seems blended to a rare result you better buy the 2015 production before it sells out or it may not be matched again? I congratulate winemaker Michael Sebastiani for a fine wine. Yes, Rusty might have been a good friend & companion and his reward is having a very nice wine named in his memory.
