Vice Versa
Beckstoffer Las Piedras Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon
St. Helena, Napa Valley, California, USA
Huge fan of their second label, Le Petit Vice, so was very excited to try one of their single vineyards. Loads of dark black fruits intermix with a very distinct minerality. This is supple and smooth with great legs and quite young (Christ, I sound like @Bill Bender). Some time will serve this wine well to integrate more fully. But it is still quite delicious at this point.

Incredible fruit! The tannins are so elegant and fine. It needs more years but it will be an incredible wine. The only bad thing is that we have less than a case left for us.

Currants and black fruits. Semi-firm tannins. Quite refined for a 2013. Crazy legs and dark purple color. 2nd installment: definitely WOTN. Fantastic and Parker rated a 97 if that does it for you!
