Notes: Grown on a steep hillside above the fog line, this powerful, Bordeaux-style blend is an exceptional example of the magical combination of meticulous farming, a unique mountain site, and principled winemaking. Leslie Rudd, had a simple vision in creating our Mt. Veeder vineyard: “The best is good enough.” It’s only fitting to dedicate this exquisite, bold wine to him. One can get lost in the dark, purple color and intense mountain aromatics present in the Rudd Mt. Veeder Estate Leslie's Blend. Each vintage of this wine opens enthusiastically with dried cherries, black currants, and a familiar Herbs de Provence warmth. This wine is lush, persistent, and powerful in every way. The aromatic fruit notes of cassis and black cherry become more serious on the palate, with a resin-like freshness that is always present from our Mt. Veeder Estate. Texturally bold, the tannins are tight and balanced, extending the length beyond what is expected in such a young, structured wine. Sweet cocoa and baking spices bring a completeness to the final lingering taste. This wine can be enjoyed for years to come and will continue to age gracefully over the next 10-15 years.
