2007 Round Pond Rutherford Cabernet Sauvignon
SKU #500416
HOT BUY! This bright and lively wine is a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot. It shows aromas reminiscent of fresh Asian plum, blueberry pie, vanilla bean, all spice, with hints of eucalyptus and cigar box. It boasts a plush mouth feel that is soft on entry, framed by well structured tannins, a balanced acid profile and medium body. Flavors of mocha and chocolate covered cherries are apparent throughout the long and smooth finish. This wine can be enjoyed now, but will age well for an additional 10 to 15 years.

WINE SPECTATOR REVIEW: A tremendous effort, dense and chewy, robust and concentrated, with a rich, focused core of blackberry, currant, cedar, herb and mineral. Full-bodied, gaining depth and persistence. Drink now through 2018.
For more than a century, Napa Valley’s Rutherford region has been recognized for producing wines of rare depth and complexity, most notably rich and expressive Cabernet Sauvignon. At Round Pond they pay tribute to the personality of estate vineyards by crafting wines that reflect the charm and sophistication of this extraordinary appellation. Made from select blocks of the best estate fruit, the wines embody the essence of a terroir-inspired, Californian winemaking philosophy.
From the commitment to vine balance to the gentle winemaking approach, the wines of Round Pond Estate benefit from loving attention that includes small lot fermentation and patient aging. In the vineyard we harvest at peak ripeness, handsorting and destemming the fruit before applying a gentle press and cold soak. In order to extract rich colors, aromas and flavors, they emphasize extended maceration of the grapes. Alongside these artisan techniques we also employ cutting-edge technology, like there custom-built fermentors, which continuously regulate temperature to within a fraction of a degree ensuring control and quality. Adding additional layers of depth and nuance, the barrel-aging program utilizes the very finest French oak coopers.
At Round Pond we believe that the best wines are born in the vineyard. Because they begin with some of the finest wine grapes in the world, there winemakers goal is not to construct a personality for Round Pond wines, the aim is to allow each Round Pond wine to find its own expressive voice.
