Note di degustazione
Sourced from a vineyard next to Caymus and shared with Myriad and Shrader, among others, the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Vineyard Georges III is a full-bodied, rich, velvety offering, loaded with cassis and plum aromas and flavors. Just a bit on the overtly warm, plush side (labeled at 15.5% alcohol), it's easy to drink now, but I find it hard to imagine the wine aging (or improving) more than a decade, even if the site originally provided fruit for the long-lived BV Private Reserves of the 1950s and '60s. It's still delicious, just made in a very different style from 60 years ago.

The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Georges III Vineyard is another more than noteworthy wine in the lineup. Lots of classic Cabernet notes of darker currants, damp earth, chocolate, and tobacco notes give way to a full-bodied wine that has lots of richness and depth while staying nicely balanced and light on its feet. It builds nicely with time in the glass, and while not a true blockbuster, it shines for its classic character and overall balance. It's beautifully done and is going to evolve for 20-25 years.
