Winemaking: Small lot fermentations, 22 months aging in 65% new French Oak 35% single used French Oak. Named for the variations of rock, loam, and clay soils found throughout the Crocker Vineyard, RLC is the embodiment of Crocker & Starr as a concept. RLC is the third distinctive estate Cabernet Sauvignon from our St. Helena vineyard estate.

Actions to maintain certifications and achieve reduced carbon foot print includes: electric tractor, cultivating cover crop with sheep, habitat for beneficial insects.

Tasting Notes The 2022 RLC shows ruby red and black color of medium dark density. Aromas of fresh cherry, black currant, pomegranate, dried tarragon are lifted-up with toasted vanilla oak and nutmeg spice set expectations of deliciousness. Flavors which are true to the aromas enter with creamy currant and dark chocolate, vanilla oak and pie spices and are reminiscent of a red velvet cake experience. The fine grain tannins hold the wine through to the medium long finish. This 2022 RLC is incredibly approachable right now and is expected to age elegantly for 15+ years.
