2023 Krutz Cabernet Sauvignon 'Beckstoffer Georges III', Napa Valley
Tasting Notes
Sourced from the historic Beckstoffer Georges III Vineyard, this Cabernet Sauvignon reveals layered aromas of dark fruit, led by ripe blackcurrants and plums, with a savory complexity and a strong sense of place. Full bodied and beautifully structured, the palate shows well integrated tannins balanced by fresh acidity, leading to a long, polished finish with a clean mineral edge.Vineyard Notes
