2023 Beckstoffer Missouri Hopper Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon

This spectacular site in southern Oakville produces wine with precision and elegance, owing to the cool, windswept location. Black currant notes predominate the nose with hints of lavender and violets, while traces of pencil shavings, tobacco, and a bouquet garni offer further complexity. While deep and brooding, a fresh citrus peel aromatic adds levity. Always energetic and lively on the palate, the flavors are highlighted with currants and a mix of red and black fruits. Polished tannins permeate the palate and finish with an elegance that is unmatched.
