2019 Courtney Benham Cabernet Sauvignon Rutherford
California offers geological diversity that few other wine regions can match, and winemaker Courtney Benham, inspired by his upbringing on a farm, fell in love with the varying landscape and endless possibilities. Courtney has three decades of experience in the wine industry, and his talent for selecting expressive plots with terroir-articulated fruit is evident in each wine he bottles.
 
Rutherford’s gravel and loam soils with volcanic deposits are a magical combination that creates the legendary complexity known as “Rutherford Dust,” sought after by Cabernet Sauvignon lovers worldwide.
 
Courtney Benham’s 2019 Rutherford Cabernet comes from a fantastic vintage in Napa Valley and highlights the region’s dusty tannins, earthy characteristics, and fruit concentration.

“Dark berries and fresh flowers on the nose with some herbs and spices. Medium to full body. Refined, very polished and tight with length and focus. Compressed and very pretty. Needs time to open and show its true self. Better after 2024.”
