Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
The Levendi 2020 Rutherford is a beautiful and full-bodied wine, with a complex flavor profile that begins with wisps of mocha and cherry on the nose. On the palate, the wine delivers rich notes of cherry, blackberry, and currant, with a soft and lingering finish. This wine is an excellent pairing for cherry glazed ducks and full-bodied red meat dishes.
Food Pairing Notes
For a classic yet delectable pairing, we recommend enjoying a juicy medium-rare hamburger with Gouda cheese alongside our 2020 Rutherford Cabernet Sauvignon. The wine's high acidity and tannins perfectly complement the fatty meat in the burger, creating a delightful balance of flavors. This classic pairing showcases the wine's versatility and approachability, making it perfect for any occasion.
