Wine reviews
2021 Myriad
Cabernet Sauvignon
Beckstoffer
Bourn
Vineyard
What might be the finest wine I've tasted from this vineyard in St. Helena, the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Bourn Vineyard has a full-bodied, flawlessly balanced, beautifully pure style that carries ample darker currant-like fruit, some chocolaty oak and tobacco nuances, ultra-fine tannins, and a great finish. It's a gorgeous bottle of wine that will evolve for two decades.
From a site outside of St. Helena, the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Bourn Vineyard is all about elegance and purity, with medium to full body and a soft, supple, seamless mouthfeel. It offers classic Napa cassis and blue fruits, a kiss of background violets and flowers (this site is never overtly complex), fine tannins, and outstanding length.
