 | Qty=1Size=750 ml, RP[95+]"One-hundred percent Cabernet Sauvignon with a deep purple-black color, the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Georges III Empyrean rolls sensuously out of the glass like Cleopatra from her carpet, revealing incredibly alluring kirsch, Black Forest cake, warm blackcurrants and black raspberry scents with compelling suggestions of cinnamon stick, rose hip tea, cloves and forest floor plus a hint of pencil shavings. The full-bodied black fruit layers dance suggestively on the palate with lots of floral and red fruit sparks and a velvety frame, finishing long and spicy." - Lisa Perrotti-Brown, robertparker.com (Oct 29, 2018) "A mix of clones and brought up in 80% new French oak, the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Georges III Vineyard is straight-up gorgeous, with a deep, dense, concentrated style reminiscent of a great vintage of Léoville-Las-Cases. Blackcurrants, lead pencil shavings, chocolate, tobacco leaf, and ample earthy minerality all give way to a powerful, full-bodied 2016 that has plenty of density, ripe tannins, and a big finish. It's tight and closed at present yet has awesome potential, so the cellar is going to be your friend. There are 175 cases produced." - Jeb Dunnuck, jebdunnuck.com (Jul 31, 2018) [JD - 97] |
