Winemakers Notes
Deep hues of dark red illustrate the density of this wine. Dark blackberry and black plum encompass nuances of espresso, dark chocolate and toasted vanillin oak along with a hint of dusty terroir. Cassis, black plum, and blackberry dominate with integrations of dark chocolate and toasted oak. This is a dark, centered wine of tremendous length with a structured core and fine-grained tannin.
RU3 is the signature expression of St. Supérys Rutherford Estate Vineyard. This 2017 vintage represents a trinity of the vineyards best blocks of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot grown on the Rutherford Bench, a geologic marvel of well-drained, mineral-rich alluvial soils and sandy clay loam that yields a world-renowned complexity of flavor.
