There is something about Beckstoffer Georges III vineyard Cabernets that I almost always love. Like this wine, they almost always have a beautiful combination of black cherry and blueberry fruit in abundance. Maybe not as serious and structured as a To Kalon or a Dr. Crane cab, but so pleasurable and makes me so happy! — 9 years ago

This is the Merlot and Cab Franc blend. How interesting... lots of tannin, medium acid. — 8 years ago

Definitely drink now. Lots of sediment in the bottle.

Not as spectacular as I was hoping for but still a solid showing. Might be due to mediocre storage since purchase.

On the nose: artificial pine, leather, and roasted (grilled? I've never had them...) Cherries. Very dark on the palate though velvety tongue. A needy mouthfeel. Ever so eager to drain you and leave you wanting. — 8 years ago

Nice. Shows its Oak Knoll character in a lighter weight with less overt fruit. I like the pleasant herbal streak on the finish. — 10 years ago

9.3

Delicious! Black cherries and intense strawberries, with hints of cedar and cranberries. When I think of AO, I think of Cabernet with an occasional Chardonnay, but now I will also think of Pinot noir. Long, satisfying finish. — 8 years ago

2012. Still hints of all the flavors I love from this Chard. Just can’t let it sit around for too long or profile changes. — 9 years ago

9.1

Pale lemon color. Intense nose of lemon, herb and green apple. High acidity, medium body and a tart finish. This is a great Sauvignon blanc not as exuberant as the typical CA style SB. I love this.
