Rutherford Hill 1999 Cab Sauv

$27 retail/$15 discountWhile it's immediately obvious that this Cab belongs to an over $20 class, the high degree of dryness combines with elevated sourness to make it inferior to many cheaper wines, such as the outstanding Trinchero Cab (listed above).
Even more disappointing are the low but present levels of greenness and moldiness ("skunkiness"), traits which we expect be either hidden (that is, balanced with complimentary traits) or under control at this price class.
