Antonio Galloni

The 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Dr. Crane Vineyard is, as always, the most sensual and perfumed Cabernet in the range. Silky, ripe tannins wrap around a core of red and purplish berry fruit, wild flowers and mint. Pliant and nuanced in the glass, the 2017 is very pretty today. It will be interesting to see if it fleshes out a bit more during aging.

Lisa Perrotti-Brown

Deep garnet-purple, the 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Dr. Crane Vineyard has a very serious nose of warm cassis, baked plums and cigar box with hints of menthol, pencil lead, cloves and cast-iron pan. Medium to full-bodied, the palate reveals beautiful poise, offering intense black fruit and mineral accents with a firm, fine-grained framed, finishing with a lingering earthy lift. 819 cases made.
