Paul Hobbs Beckstoffer Dr. Crane Vineyard Cabernet

Vintage: 2017
Description: Winemaker NotesHarvested from two small prized blocks identified by Paul, this expressive wine penetrates with aromas of blackberry compote, sweet tobacco and crushed violets. Savory herbs like thyme and marjoram interplay with red currant, black raspberry, mocha and umami characteristics on the palate. Possessing a broad and deep texture, the grippy tannins are met with mineral notes of wet stones and balanced by a vibrant acidity that brings tension towards the long, persistent finish.Critical AcclaimJames Suckling - 96ptsExtremely polished Crane with crushed-berry, stone, and sage character on the palate. Full body, creamy texture and a long, delicious finish. Really fresh and beautiful. One of the most elegant wines from here.Wine Spectator - 94ptsDelightfully ripe, with lush, flattering cassis and creamed blackberry and plum flavors gliding through. Shows light wood spice and licorice shadings on the finish, revealing a gorgeous loamy echo, while the fruit holds sway easily. Exhibits barely a blip of the vintage's edgy tannins, delivering serious fruit and a grounding in terroir.
