Plums and spices with cinnamon and lavender. Lead pencil, too. Medium-bodied and compact palate with cashmere tannins that are long and fresh. Reserved and layered in a subtle way. Drinkable now, but better in 2026.
Score: 98 James Suckling (JS), JamesSuckling.com, February 2022
Made from 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Dr Crane Vineyard is opaque purple-black colored, prancing out of the glass with vibrant notions of blueberry preserves, black cherry compote and blackcurrant cordial, plus nuances of pencil lead, tapenade, violets, mocha and crushed rocks. The full-bodied palate is built like a brick house, featuring very firm, fine, densely pixilated Dr. Crane tannins and bold freshness supporting layer upon layer of crunchy black berries and minerals, featuring a firework display of fragrant earth and floral notes on the long, long, long finish. Right up there with Napa Valley’s greatest, this is going to be a legendary wine. Give it a good 5-7 years to really fan out and drink it over the next 30 years+.
Score: 100 Lisa Perrotti-Brown (LPB), The Wine Advocate (WA), September 2021
