The 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Missouri Hopper Vineyard is fabulous, with notes of blueberry interwoven with wet stones and scorched earth, giving it a somewhat Graves-like Bordeaux character. It hits the palate with thunderous, rich blueberry and blackberry fruit, some incense and camphor, and finishes with light but silky tannin. This is a big wine, one of the larger-scaled Cabernet Sauvignons in Alpha Omega’s 2014 portfolio, as well as one of my favorites.
