“Impressive levels of cassis, scorched earth, iron, and lead pencil all emerge from the 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Dr. Crane Vineyard, another ripe, upfront, incredibly seductive 2022 that's drinking beautifully today. With medium to full-bodied richness, good concentration, ripe tannins, and the ethereal, front end-loaded style of the vintage, it's perfect for drinking any time over the coming 10-12 years.” (01/2025)

“The 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Dr. Crane Vineyard is succulent, racy and open-knit, all qualities that make it a fine choice for drinking now and over the next handful of years. Juicy dark cherry, plum, mocha, espresso and licorice all meld together. This is very nicely done. (AG)” (12/2024)
