description: Deeply scented, a big, powerhouse Cabernet grown on the Rutherford bench. It's dense, chewy and meaty, showing blackberry jam, blueberry, chocolate and sweet smoky oak. The tannins are thick and furry, as befits such a young, ageable wine. Hold until 2013, and it should develop through 2019.
variety: Cabernet Sauvignon
designation: Tietjen Vineyard
