Beckstoffer Las Piedras Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2018

The 2018 Beckstoffer Las Piedras Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon is a remarkable wine that showcases the unique terroir of St. Helena. Named for the "tiny pebbles" that define the vineyard's gravelly soils, Las Piedras was the first vineyard planted in the St. Helena AVA, and today it continues to produce some of Napa Valley's most concentrated Cabernet. The 2018 vintage benefits from a near-perfect growing season, resulting in a wine with incredible depth and freshness.

On the nose, this wine offers an enticing bouquet of redcurrants, vanilla, leather, and blackcurrants, with hints of dried mango and truffle oil. The palate is complex and layered, featuring silky tannins and flavors of Rainier cherry, fresh persimmon, dark chocolate, and macerated dark fruit. Aged for 22 months in French oak (80% new), this Cabernet Sauvignon is available in extremely limited quantities—secure a piece of Napa Valley history while you can.
