BECKSTOFFER
Tuck Beckstoffer's family 1000-acre vineyard has been producing top quality grapes for many first-rate wineries in the Napa Valley for years. In 1997, he decided to make his own limited 75 case production of Cabernet Sauvignon. Since its release, it has been given great praise as a true collectable and a great cult wine of the Valley. It was sold out before its initial release and the waiting list continues to surpass its production. Three magnums were produced of each vintage and none have been available for sale. The two lots below of the 1998 vintage are pre-releases as this wine will not be officially released to the public until February 2001.
Beckstoffer Wines Cabernet Sauvignon--Vintage 1997
Napa Valley, Rutherford
Lots 916-917 signed and numbered by Tuck Beckstoffer
"A wonderfully enticing aroma of ripe fruit and toasted oak leading to strong notes of cherry and tobacco in the body. The finish only leaves you wanting another glass. This is one for the history books. Big and beautiful from start to finish. The rich dark and inky color of this beautifully handcrafted wine do only partial justice to its unbelievable intensity of flavors in the mouth. This wine was designed to and will age beautifully. Get as much as you can, even at the price. This is one of the best Cabernets to come out of the Napa Valley, period." The New York Times, 7/2000
