Elysian Beckstoffer Dr. Crane Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2018

The last time I had this was at The French Laundry trying to convince someone to support a nonprofit I love. The subsequent gift was generous but, somehow, underwhelming. This wine is like that. A great vintage, a great vineyard, in great hands, but it had so much more potential. I’m not whining about a 97-point wine; I’m lucky to enjoy it. But it could’ve been even more. — 14 days ago

Beckstoffer Dr. Crane Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2022

Pretty nose of rose and violets, soft blue and red fruits, touch of cocoa, hint of fresh herbs, velvet in the mouth, smooth and lively grippy tannins that makes you want to go back for more, black rock and soil. — 3 months ago

Drinking very well right now (2024). Critical said to drink up but I found it still having strong fruit balancing the dirt. Reminded me of some lovely aged Bordeaux I've had in the past. I'd enjoy now or over the next few years if you're lucky enough to have any bottles. Cheers! — 14 days ago

Big & bold. Ripe dark fruit, spice, etc…Evolved yet still developing. Really loved the complex tertiary flavors starting to appear. One complaint: WHOPPING 14.7%! — a month ago

Such a good wine for the price. It's a "crowd pleaser" but hey, what's wrong with that? You get some oak, some texture, jammy fruit, good acidity, long finish. You definitely get your money's worth here. — 2 years ago

Salvestrin

Three D Cabernet Sauvignon 2009

[Tasted on November 19, 2022 at Mimo in Nashville with Jay]

Purchased during visit to the winery in September 2022. Salvestrin was pouring library wines. Three D bottling is selected from Salvestrin’s finest lots in their Dr. Crane Vineyard. Dark cherry and blackberry fruit, with toasted oak, lead pencil, vanilla and spice. Silky and elegant wine which has aged very well.
