Nickel & Nickel C.C. Ranch: A Rutherford Masterpiece

This Single-Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon from Nickel & Nickel stands as a powerful yet polished example of Napa Valley winemaking. Sourced exclusively from the C.C. Ranch in the esteemed Rutherford AVA, it captures the essence of this unique terroir, known for producing Cabs of great structure and finesse.

Flavour Profile & Vintage Highlights

The C.C. Ranch wine is often lauded for its combination of intense fruit and subtle earthiness-the classic 'Rutherford Dust' character. Expect a captivating aroma of dark plum, cassis, and a hint of lilac, leading to a full-bodied palate. Layers of rich raspberry, black cherry, and seductive spice are supported by well-integrated tannins and a backbone of fine French oak, lending notes of mocha and cedar. It's a wine that is both approachable now and destined for graceful maturity in the cellar.

Food Pairing & Serving Advice

This bold red is the perfect accompaniment to a classic Sunday roast or a special occasion dinner. Serve between 16°C and 18°C for optimal enjoyment, ideally after a brief decant.

• **Suggested Matches:** Traditional Roast Sirloin of Beef, Beef Wellington, or strong, aged cheeses like mature Cheddar or Gouda.
