2020 | Paul Hobbs Beckstoffer Dr. Crane Cabernet | St Helena Grape Abduction Those capable of looking past

Those capable of looking past its upfront approachability will be rewarded with patience as this wine will evolve and shine over the next four decades

quite Pauillac in style

offering tightly wound black fruit with attractive black pepper

but less easy to read today

plenty of texture and minerality

2020 | Paul Hobbs Beckstoffer Dr. Crane Cabernet | St Helena Grape Abduction Those capable of looking pastOne of the finest wines I was able to taste in the vintage is the 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Dr. Crane Vineyard, a deep, inky hued 2020 with lots of black and blue fruits as well as Graves like scorched earth, tobacco, and smoked herbs. Full bodied, concentrated, and opulent, it has ripe tannins, a round, mouth filling texture, and outstanding length. Its going to evolve for 15 years. 95 Pts Jeb Dunnuck
