From the prestigious Beckstoffer Georges III vineyard in Rutherford, the Bell Clone 6 Cabernet Sauvignon 2007 is as the name suggests, 100% Clone 6 Cabernet. True to form, it exhibits lush, saturating notes of boysenberry, black cherries, sandalwood, tar and meadow flowers. In the mouth it's opulent and silkily textured, with juicy black fruit, cassis, and fine, ripe tannins. In addition, an incredibly lengthy finish that tapirs off with receding exotic spice notes, baker's cocoa and cedar.

Jammy and with plenty of tannins- this is the final single clone wine I purchased at Bell for my 25th birthday (years ago!). Love their unfiltered clones- expensive but worth it. Have new series waiting in the cellar...

Gorgeous. Deep. Tough call between this and clone 337 (very different!). With our meal, preferred 337 by a hair.
