Score 98/100 · Drink 2025-2045, Jeb Dunnuck, Dec 2025

Sporting a deep ruby/purple hue, the 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Dr. Crane Vineyard is a big, powerful expression of Cabernet with ripe blue fruits, plum, chocolate, and scorched earth-like aromatics. Based on 81% Cabernet Sauvignon and 19% Cabernet Franc and aged 21 months in 67% new French oak, it's full-bodied, deep, and opulently textured with ripe, sweet tannins, moderate acidity, and a blockbuster finish. Drink this upfront, unctuous, blockbuster effort over the coming two decades. Drink 2025-2045.

Sourced from particularly stony blocks planted to Clone 6, there's a quiet power behind Tor's 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Dr. Crane Vineyard. Scents of crushed stone and ripe cherries meet hints of caramel on the nose, while the full-bodied palate is supple and softly tannic, with tremendous length on the finish. This shows great harmony and cohesiveness already.

The 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Dr. Crane Vineyard is a classic wine off this site. Pliant and racy to the core, the 2023 captures the essence of Dr. Crane. Inky red/purplish fruit, blood orange, menthol, cinnamon and cedar build in the glass, filling out the layers effortlessly. What a wine!
