Note di degustazione
The 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Dr. Crane is plump, juicy and surprisingly accessible for a wine from this vintage. Dark raspberries, plums, mocha, chocolate and cloves are some of the notes that are layered into the finish. It would be great to see a little more Dr. Crane character in the bottle. This is an attractive wine, but I feel so much more could have been done. It was not a total shock to learn that Jacquelynn has decided to stop production of the Dr. Crane and focus on some of their other fruit sources.

These wines from Jacquelynn, the sister label to Chateau Boswell, were made by winemaker Luc Morlet, who was replaced by Russell Bevan with the 2012 harvest. I tasted the 2010 Jacquelynn Cabernet Sauvignons from bottle twice, but never found the pedigree and sheer excitement these wines had when I tasted them in barrel in late 2011. Tel. (707) 963-5472
The 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Dr. Crane is sweet, floral and perfumed. Gorgeous floral notes lead to layers of vibrant dark fruit in this impeccable, totally polished Cabernet. This is classic Dr. Crane in its aromas, flavors and textural finesse. An intense yet feminine finish rounds things out in style.
