2008 Ruston Family Vineyards La Maestra Cabernet Sauvignon

Estate: Ruston Family Vineyards
Region: St. Helena, Napa Valley, California, United States of America


Tasting Note:January 21, 2016

Dark purple red. Nose was covered in blackberries and blueberries. Light cassis and slight acetone. Nose finished with a little chalk. Moderate tannins (5.5/10) with a moderate body. Solid acidity in this body, with black cherries and creme de cassis. Slightly sharp in the moderate finish, lingers for around 10 or so seconds. Solid wine for the price point, we might have to grab another one or two just to put away.
