"The Debate's 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Dr. Crane shows the aromatic lift and silkiness that is often found in wines from this site. Dark raspberries, rose petals, sweet spices and new leather all flow through to the inviting, racy finish. These are three highly promising Cabernet Sauvignons from The Debate, a winery that is new to me. The Debate pulls fruit from three of Andy Beckstoffer's most celebrated vineyards. The wines are rich, intense and powerful, but also beautifully balanced."
