In 2020 we added several more rows to our Beckstoffer Vineyard Georges III Cabernet Sauvignon from the F-block, adjacent to the Caymus winery. The robust flavors and rich layers of texture from these rows blended seamlessly with our legacy F-block rows and our new rows from block A1A. These components combined for greater complexity in the finished wine. It is a wine you can savor over time as it evolves in glass. The classic Rutherford Dust profile shines in the wine’s layers of dark cherry, blackberry, earth and mocha flavors.

"The scintillating 2020 Beckstoffer George III Sojourn Cabernet is aged in 75% new French oak is always my favorite wine from the estate. Classic Napa Cabernet notes of dried and fresh blackberry, boysenberry fruit leather, creme de cassis, earthy spice, eucalyptus, sweet tobacco, cedary herbs, graphite powder, and violet flower petals pour from the glass. Fully ripe and concentrated with grippy sweet tannins, mouthwatering acidity, and a lengthy fruit-forward finish complete the wine. Enjoy this one in 2023 and over the next two decades. Only 300 cases were produced. Highly recommended and editor's choice. " - Jeremy Young, International Wine Report
