Description
Founded by the same team behind Far Niente, Nickel & Nickel has built its reputation on producing single vineyard Napa Valley Cabs, each focused on showing Terroir, precision, and elegance. C.C. Ranch is located in Rutherford, a region prized for its “Rutherford Dust” characteristic, fine chocolatey tannins with an earthy elegance. The vineyard is found specifically in central Rutherford, where gravel soils and slightly cooler temps produce wines with more structure. Winemaking is classic Napa, with a touch of restraint, all hand harvested fruit, and gentle French oak aging to highlight the quality of fruit while maintaing the site specific expression. Ripe red fruits, cherries, plums, with some cassis, layered with graphite and cocoa powder, subtle spices mingle in the background. A elegant wine with an emphasis on structure, tannins, and finish. A delight served alongside Venison, or mushroom stuffed pork tenderloin, to truly showcase the earthy elegance of Rutherford Dust.
