@Paul T you answered my question!👍

Tuck Beckstoffer Wines

Cabernet Sauvignon 2007

07' Tuck Beckstoffer Cabernet. You guessed it...Comes from 3 of their iconic vineyards. The Beckstoffer DR. Crane/ Missouri Hopper/Las Piedras (what a combo)100% new oak. Little more then 4 barrels made. 07' was the inaugural release.

The color is purpleish/black. Decanted for 1 hour... needs more. Full-bodied & elegant. I think most people would smell this & guess "Napa cab". Black cherry, raspberry, cigar-box, oak. Pleasing, with an extended & inviting finish. It's got another a good decade in front of it. Crowd pleaser...

Not a huge Chardonnay fan, but loved this one. Pours a beautiful gold. Perfect amount of caramel and just smidge of toast. Will pour and repeat. — 11 years ago

The Debate Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2010

To Kalon is my favorite of the 3 “The Debate” wines. It is less hot than Missouri Hopper and Dr. Crane and showing more subtility and complexity as well. Great midpalate. — 12 years ago

Morlet Family Vineyards

Passionnément Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2009

09' Morlet Passionnement It's a blend from To Kalon, Missouri Hopper & Knights valley.

Don't know what to think about my 09's from Napa Valley. Love them! Not in love with them. Awkward drinking stage?

Nose- Blackberry, cassis. Palate-Black cherry, tobacco, mint & bitter chocolate on the mid palate. This 100% cab is slightly hollow. Drinking with nice length and complexity. I'm guessing the front of the palate should catch up to the back? Hold.

Good bottle of wine. If you can find the 2008... recommend highly.

The '09s are the wines you buy to keep you on the allocation list. Want to love them, but you end up in the friend zone.

@David L 09 wasn't 12-13 but still produced some very nice wines. If you believe in reviews, this is the very first year of this wine's drinking window through 2029. I believe it hasn't revealed it's best yet. Having said that, I always believed that for the most part IMHO, the best wines both brothers make are their Chardonnay's & Pinots. Not necessarily their Cabernet's.

Thinking of buying. Worth it?

Napa Valley Merlot Rosé 2009

Strawberry, light cherry and a little bit of vanilla. For a rosé, this has a flavor profile more in line with a Pinot Noir. Definitely a darker hued rosé with more red fruit character extracted from the skins. Purchased in 2010 at the winery... Y'know before everyone and their grandmother jumped on the rosé bandwagon. 😛 — 10 years ago

Monterey County Sauvignon Blanc

August 1, 2015, no vintage on the Fish Hopper, Monterey, CA menu, but the waiter described the 3 Monterey Sauvignon Blancs and Bernardus sounded perfect for my palate. I loved the minerality and it was not sweet, perfect for me! — 11 years ago

Speratus

The Debate Beckstoffer Missouri Hopper Cabernet Sauvignon 2011

Take some awesome pedigree fruit, over oak the crap out of it and then add some oak chips and shavings for good measure. Round vanilla, dark berry and you guessed it, wood grain. Disappointing for the price point, no debate here. — 10 years ago
