2022 Krutz Cabernet Sauvignon 'Beckstoffer Georges III', Napa Valley
Tasting Notes
Our 2022 Cabernet is one of the most powerful offerings we have produced. The heat of the summer guided the grapes to an easily extracted and rich profile. It is a full bodied wine with a dynamic tannin structure and rich black fruits with a backing of vanilla from the French oak barrels. Young and dominant, this wine will likely age better than us.Vineyard Notes
