    (a) Name. The name of the viticultural area described in this 
section is ``Rutherford.''
    (b) Approved maps. The appropriate maps for determining the boundary 
of the Rutherford viticultural area are two U.S.G.S. topographical maps 
of the 1:24,000 scale:
    (1) ``Yountville Quadrangle, California,'' edition of 1951, 
photorevised 1968.
    (2) ``Rutherford Quadrangle, California,'' edition of 1951, 
photorevised 1968, photoinspected 1973.
    (c) Boundary. The Rutherford viticultural area is located in Napa 
County in the State of California. The boundary is as follows:
    (1) Beginning on the Yountville quadrangle map at the point where 
the county road known as the Silverado Trail intersects Skellenger Lane, 
just outside the southwest corner of Section 12, Township 7 North (T.7 
N.), Range 5 West (R.5 W.), the boundary proceeds in a southwesterly 
direction in a straight line approximately 1.7 miles along Skellenger 
Lane, past its intersection with Conn Creek Road, to the point of 
intersection with the main channel of the Napa River (on the 
``Rutherford'' map);
    (2) Then south along the center of the river bed approximately .4 
miles to the point where an unnamed stream drains into the Napa River

entry road to Robert Mondavi Winery (shown on the map) to the southeast 
corner of Assessor's Parcel Number 27-250-14;
    (5) Thence southwesterly S 55[deg]06[min]28[sec] W for 3,869 feet 
along the common boundary between Assessor's Parcel Numbers 27-250-14 
and 27-280-50/51 to the southwest corner of Assessor's Parcel Number 27-
250-14;

along the westerly property line of Assessor's Parcel Number 27-250-14;
    (7) Thence southwesterly S 51[deg]00[min] W in a straight line to 
the 500-foot contour line of the Mayacamas Range in the northwestern

    (8) Then proceeding along the 500-foot contour line in a generally 
northwesterly direction in T.7 N., R.5 W. through Sections 21, 20, 17, 
18, 17, and 18 to the northwest portion of Section 7 where the 500-foot 
contour line intersects a southwestward straight line extension of the 
light-duty road known as Inglewood Avenue;
    (9) Thence in a straight line in a northeasterly direction along 
this extension of Inglewood Avenue to its intersection with the north 
fork of Bale Slough;
    (10) Thence in a southeasterly direction along the north fork of 
Bale Slough approximately 2,750 feet to its intersection with the end of 
the county road shown on the map as Zinfandel Avenue, known locally as 
Zinfandel Lane, near the 201-foot elevation marker;
    (11) Then in a northeasterly direction along Zinfandel Avenue 
(Zinfandel Lane) approximately 2.12 miles to the intersection of that 
road and Silverado Trail, then continuing northeasterly in a straight 
line to the 380-foot contour line;
