Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Missouri Hopper Vineyard 2019 Carte Blanche

Professionelle Bewertungen

Robert Parker (97)

The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Missouri Hopper Vineyard epitomizes the current state of plush, valley-floor Napa Cabernet. From a famous Oakville site nestled up against the Mayacamas, it's 100% Cabernet Sauvignon (Clones 4 and 337) yet wonderfully lush and velvety. Cassis and black cherry fruit is cosseted by 100% new French oak, adding gentle vanilla and cedar nuances on the nose, while the full-bodied palate is really deep and intense yet manages to be soft and elegant on the long, mouthwatering finish.

The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Missouri Hopper is fabulous. Rich, inky and deeply layered, the 2019 possesses tremendous density and vibrancy to march. Copious blue purplish fruit, gravel, licorice, menthol, violet and spice race across the palate in this sumptuous, full-bodied Cabernet Sauvignon. There's plenty of structure, but the tannins are nearly buried by the sheer luxuriousness of the fruit.

This version is well-packed with dark currant, fig and boysenberry compote flavors, supported by hints of charcoal, roasted apple wood and warm earth. Muscular and grippy, with an espresso crema accent on the finish. For fans of the big, muscular style
