Fairly similar to the 2014 887 St. Helena Family Reserve in American Oak. The Rutherford had little hints of that "Rutherford dust" note, which complimented the dark red and black berry and currant fruit flavors. The St. Helena had a little more depth than the Rutherford.
91+ points at the moment.

Still pretty dense, we probably should have opened it much earlier to breathe.
