2010 Sojourn Cellars
Cabernet Sauvignon
Beckstoffer
Georges III
Vineyard
A wonderful effort, the 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer George III Vineyard is 100% unfined and unfiltered Cabernet Sauvignon that was aged in 75% new French oak. It achieved 14.7% alcohol. Abundant minerality along with incense, crème de cassis and toasty oak characteristics are found in this full-bodied, fleshy, nicely layered Cabernet along with beautiful purity, wonderful fruit and surprising accessibility for a 2010. It should drink well for 10-15 years. These are three high quality, reasonably priced Cabernet Sauvignons from Sojourn, which is probably better known for its collection of Pinot Noirs from the Sonoma Coast.
