Sullivan Rutherford Estate Coeur De Vigne 2022 Review

We continue to enjoy the blends coming from the Sullivan estate vintage after vintage. The blend for the Coeur de Vigne bottling shifts with each harvest, and the 2022 vintage saw a return to a Cabernet Sauvignon-dominant style, making up 80 percent of the blend. The wine is deep with concentrated black and red fruit notes complemented by savory accents of earth, herbs, and saline. At 14.8 percent ABV it’s a full-bodied wine with ample tannins, so give it some time to open up before enjoying.
