“Just about pure perfection, the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Dr. Crane Vineyard will stand up to anything coming out of this Grand Cru vineyard outside of St. Helena. Incredible crème de cassis, smoked earth, graphite, and tobacco define the bouquet, and it’s full-bodied, with a layered, multidimensional mouthfeel, perfect balance, and a finish that just won’t quit. Based on 98% Cabernet Sauvignon and 2% Petit Verdot aged 19 months in French oak, it’s a sensational 2018 readers should snatch up.”
