Textbook Rutherford Cab. It’s forward and lush now in ripe black and red cherry pie and dusty spice flavors, with oak adding caramel, smoke and buttered toast notes. Feels opulent and fat and just plain good. Should continue to evolve in the bottle for years. ——S.H.(12/1/2010)—— 92

The term “Rutherford Bench” is not a legal one, but colloquially refers to the west side of Highway 29, where the wines, supposedly, are better. And this is quite a good wine. It’s fresh and young in sweet tannins and acidity; everything’s not quite integrated yet, but it’s a big, rich, complexly balanced wine. Should come into its own by 2008, then hold for some years.——S.H.(12/1/2007)—— 91
