This wine was tastier than the merlot. However, the server mentioned that the merlot is Rutherford Hill's flagship wine.

Wine blending is at the heart of our winemaking programs. Wine blending is the critical process of deftly combining different wines, from multiple vineyards locations and appellations with one goal: creating a complete wine that is superior to the individual components. We honor this step with the Winemaker's Blend, a unique wine that celebrates the artistic, strategic and challenging task of wineblending.

Tasting Notes:

Complex aromas of dark cherry and plum, with a hint of caramel bringing forth concentrated, full bodied flavors of red currant and cherry with a hint of floral notes.
