| Description: | Winemaker\u2019s Notes\r\nIn the glass, floral notes of lilies and cassis blend with earth notes of cool graphite. The palate beckons with a subtle minerality that is felt among layers of dimension. A classic, cacao-dusted finish reveals this vintage\u2019s erudite nature.\r\nAbout Amulet Estate\r\nLocated along Conn Creek at the eastern edge of Rutherford, Beckstoffer\u00a0Vineyard Georges Iii is a beautiful ranch with acres of grapes placed under a conservation easement. This historic vineyard\u00a0dates back to 1895 and is tied to legendary winemaker Andre Tchelistcheff.\u00a0\r\nBeginning at 500 feet of elevation, the vineyard gently slopes to the south, offering optimum sun exposure for ripening Cabernet Sauvignon, and complementing their meticulous farming.\u00a0In the pre-World War Ii era our already gravelly block was supplemented with stones from the creek during a flood control project done by the Army Core of Engineers. Planted entirely to Clone 337 of Cabernet Sauvignon, suited for the well-draining Cortina soils where they sit, and each vine\u2019s \u2018Lyre\u2019 training protects the fruit from Rutherford\u2019s warm climate, allowing for maximum hang-time. |
