GREAT CABS ARE BORN FROM RUTHERFORD DUST
Our Cabernet sanctuary is the Usibelli Vineyard on the Rutherford Bench, the most heralded source of Cabernet Sauvignon in Napa Valley. Stretching three miles from Oakville to Rutherford along the western edge of Route 29, the Rutherford Bench promises a wonderfully long growing season. The soil is dominated by Franciscan marine sedimentary materials, with some volcanic deposits, producing wine with the unique dusty-berry-spicy flavor profile known as “Rutherford Dust.”
