Why Clone 4?
Clone 4 is revered for its ability to express the essence of Cabernet Sauvignon with purity and intensity. Grown on the Rutherford Bench, it benefits from gravelly soils and ideal drainage, resulting in wines with structure, complexity, and the iconic “Rutherford Dust” character.
Why Choose Magnums?
Magnums (1.5L) are not just impressive—they’re practical. The larger format allows wine to age more gracefully, developing deeper complexity and integration over time. Perfect for collectors or those hosting elegant gatherings, magnums make a bold statement and preserve the wine’s integrity for years to come.
