Wine reviews

November 2019

Very deep garnet-purple in color, the barrel sample of 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Dr. Crane Vineyard leaps from the glass with notes of wild blueberries, warm cassis and plum preserves plus underlying scents of baked redcurrants and dried mulberries with faint wafts of fallen leaves, bouquet garni and dusty earth. Full-bodied, firm, and refreshing, it has loads of red and black fruit layers and a long, earth-laced finish. – LPB
