Rudd Oakville Estate Red 2008: four Bordeaux grapes at 14.9%
The 2008 is sold under the label Oakville Estate Proprietary Red, from Rudd Estate in Oakville, Napa Valley. Its stated alcohol is 14.9%. It is a dry red built on Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Malbec and Petit Verdot.
Rudd’s Oakville vineyard: 65 acres, volcanic core-stone soils
The estate vineyards are planted only to red Bordeaux varieties. The Oakville property covers 65 acres, 47 of them under vine. The soils are volcanic rock weathered into core-stone bedrock, layered in places with alluvial sediment. The Oakville Estate blend combines the eastern and western sides of the property.
The vineyard is now farmed organically by the estate’s own team.
From the Rudd family to St. Supéry: 1996–2026
Leslie and Susan Rudd bought the property in 1996. The first Rudd vintages, 1998 and 1999, were made from purchased fruit; the first wine from the Oakville vineyard was the 2000. Leslie Rudd died in May 2018, and his daughter Samantha Rudd then took over the Rudd businesses. In April 2026 the family sold the winery and brand to St. Supéry, which Chanel has owned since 2015. The 2008 was made well before that sale and before the current winemaker, Natalie Bath, took charge of the cellar in 2021.
The Napa Valley label and the 85% rule
