Note di degustazione
Unquestionably my favorite of the three 2014 releases, the 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Dr. Crane has a Graves-like minerality as well as utterly profound notes of blackcurrants, tobacco leaves, smoked cigars, saddle leather and hints of asphalt. Ripe, full-bodied, opulent and layered on the palate, with a heavenly texture, this beauty is a tour de force in Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon that I’d put up against anything out there. It’s incredibly today, yet has three decades of longevity in front of it.

The profound 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Dr. Crane Vineyard (15.1% alcohol) is another La Mission Haut Brion lookalike. Rich, with notes of charcoal embers, barbecue smoke, blueberry and blackberry liqueur, violets and a touch of wood spice, it is full-bodied, powerful, concentrated, layered and impressive. Drink it over the next 25-30 years.
The 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Dr. Crane is inky, rich and super-concentrated. Crème de cassis, raspberry jam, sweet French oak and sweet spices infuse this unctuous, flamboyant Cabernet Sauvignon. The Dr. Crane is, in my view, the best-balanced of these three wines. Best of all, it will drink well right out of the gate.
