2007 Perry Moore Beckstoffer Dr. Crane Cabernet Sauvignon

Notes from the Winemaker: Deep dark red color with a light purple hue. Elegant, supple and harmonious; with rich layers of spicy currant, black cherry and blackberry with undertones of sage and herbs, ending with fleshy and graceful tannins.

St. Helena, Napa Valley - Established in 1858 by Dr. George Beldon Crane. Dr. Crane is a small vineyard (25 acres) located in St. Helena in the flood plain of Sulphur Creek and is very gravelly. The cabs here tend to ripen earlier and are very comfortable with stress and heat. The fruit has an intense flavor, is herbal with soft tannins, layers and is very dark. With only 25 acres available we are in very good company with Paul Hobbs Winery also producing a single vineyard Cab from Dr. Crane.

For optimal tasting, open this bottle one hour before serving, or decant.
