Product Description
JD98 Coming all from clone 4 Cabernet, the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Las Piedras Vineyard is another gorgeous wine in every sense. More red and black fruits, camphor, dried flowers, and tobacco define the bouquet, and it’s full-bodied and flawlessly balanced, with building yet ripe tannins and the purity and elegance that defines the 2018 vintage. It’s slightly more finesse-driven compared to the more overtly powerful Dr. Crane release, but it should evolve for just as long.
RP97 Made from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Las Piedras Vineyard was aged for 22 months in French oak, 100% new. Deep garnet-purple in color, it needs a little swirling to reveal gorgeous red currant jelly, blackberry preserves and fresh black currants scents with an undercurrent of camphor, rose oil and cloves plus a waft of fragrant soil. Full-bodied, concentrated and with a lovely backbone of freshness, it has beautifully ripe tannins and a long, harmonious finish. 150 cases were made.
