RCF Vineyard

The vineyard runs along the bank of Simmons Creek on our Calistoga estate and was first planted in 1985 with Merlot bud-wood from the famed Three Palms Vineyard, located just to the south on Silverado Trail. Comprised primarily of cobblestones and loam, this site yields wines of depth and character inspired by classic Right Bank blends. In 2002, we began redeveloping the vineyard, and the next release was not until the 2013 vintage.

The Merlot-based 2019 RCF Vineyard, is packed with dark plum fruit, chocolate, spice, new leather, licorice and menthol. There is terrific density, and yet the 2019 retains that super classic Fisher sense of structure. Give this a few years to come together fully.
