Product Info
The 2023 Crimson Veil Beckstoffer Crimson Ridge Cabernet Sauvignon represents a remarkable moment in California winemaking history. Crafted by the visionary winemaker Kirk Venge at B Cellars, this distinguished wine marks a groundbreaking venture for legendary grower Andy Beckstoffer—his inaugural release bearing his prestigious name outside the hallowed vineyards of Napa County. Sourced from the elevated terroirs of Red Hills in Lake County, this Cabernet Sauvignon captures the essence of high-elevation viticulture. The region's unique climate and mineral-rich soils impart complexity and character to every sip, revealing layers of dark fruit, subtle spice, and refined tannin structure. This is a wine that speaks to the pioneering spirit of California's wine country, where tradition meets innovation on the slopes of Lake County's most coveted vineyard sites. A true collector's piece for those who appreciate the artistry of world-class winemaking and the significance of a grower's legacy.
94 Points
Location: Red Hills AVA, Lake County, California, with high-elevation blocks reaching up to 2,510 feet.
Soil: Alluvial Benridge-Konocti series featuring weathered dacite, volcanic ash, and basalt, which give the soils a distinct reddish tint and mineral depth.
Aromas: Fruit-forward scents of black blackberry, plum, and cassis mixed with pencil shavings, toasted oak, mineral touches, and dried herbs.
Palate: Full-bodied and concentrated with dark and red fruits, layered with nuances of cola, leather, and baking spice.
Structure: Bright, balancing acidity cuts through the dense core, complemented by chewy, structured, and lengthy high-elevation tannins that lead to an extended finish.
Aging: Approachable in its youth, yet built with the structural depth to age gracefully for a decade or more. Name:
