“Made from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2022 Beckstoffer Dr. Crane Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon was aged for 22 months in French oak. Deep garnet-purple colored, it races out with notes of crushed blackcurrants, menthol, and black raspberries, followed by hints of lilacs and pencil shavings plus a touch of crushed rocks. The full-bodied palate is tightly knit with soft acidity and grainy tannins, finishing a lingering ferrous note.”
