Sourced from the renowned Beckstoffer Dr. Crane Vineyard in St. Helena, this is another absolutely sensational release from Arrow & Branch in this vintage. Composed of 95% Cabernet Sauvignon that was co-fermented with 5% Petit Verdot, this deep, dark red begins with seductive aromas of ripe dark currants, black cherries and blueberries which are woven together with spices, pencil lead, tobacco, violets and wet gravel nuances. On the palate this offers a fabulous plush full body, with amazing depth and concentration. It continues to seamlessly deliver loads of ripe dark fruits which all build up and cascade on to the long opulent finish. There is nothing not to love about this, it is simply mesmerizing wine that is delicious today and should continue to provide drinking pleasure over the course of the next two decades.
