Cork

From C.C. Ranch in Rutherford, perched on a west-facing knoll of volcanic bedrock, this wine was aged for 18 months in French oak barrels, 55% of which were new. In 2023, it is gorgeously perfumed, opening with sweet red and black cherry fruit. The palate is super-lush yet composed, showing silky, satiny fruit and a progression toward brighter red-fruited tones, layered with sweet Asian spice. Very fine-grained tannins give shape and polish, leading to a cocoa-nib and crushed sea-salt finish. Deeply satisfying and harmonious, it delivers balanced richness without excess.
