Hi gman and welcome to the board. We're never unkind here as most of us are in a constant state of motion between the cellar and the kitchen. I think you probably have most of the ID right on your wine. My guess is that it's a B.V. Rutherford Cabernet. More likely than not from the marvelous 97 vintage. This is a terrific wine that may be hard to find but you can find the 98 vintage which is a shade behind it. Call your restaurant and confirm my suspicion. Lottsa' luck. WW Woops! You gave the vintage as 98. My answer's still the same, tho you'da loved the 97 [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb2/biggrin.gif[/img]
