2021
A wine that looks like pure perfection is the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Dr. Crane Vineyard, a 100% Cabernet Sauvignon brought up all in new Taransaud barrels. Cassis, graphite, smoky black fruits, loamy earth, and green tobacco all make an appearance on the nose, and it’s full-bodied, deep, and layered, with perfectly ripe, polished tannins. Unfortunately, there are a scant two barrels made (50 cases), so count yourself lucky if you can latch onto a few bottles.
