2020 Beckstoffer Vineyard Georges III Cabernet Sauvignon

Fresh and alluring, the wine opens with notes of plum and boysenberry. The fruit aromas are interlaced with elements of allspice and cedar with a hint of citrus. Layered and complex, notes of dried cherries and dark chocolate add depth to the wine. The typical Rutherford dustiness completes the wine with elegance. A palate-staining wine, the tannins are robust yet refined. The growing season was abundant in sunshine, resulting in a thick skin, which translates into a rich tannin structure. Hints of red fruits and dried cherry permeate the palate and the finish has a dusty, chocolate texture.
