Amici Beckstoffer Missouri Hopper Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2017

A total knockout in the vintage, the 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Missouri Hopper Vineyard offers a ripe, powerful, full-bodied style as well as textbook Missouri Hopper notes of black, chocolaty fruit, smoked herbs, tobacco, and crushed rocks. This site doesn't get the recognition it deserves and has produced some awesome wines over the past 4-5 years. With a great mid-palate, loads of pure, opulent fruit, integrated oak, and fine tannins, it dishes up loads of pleasure already yet will keep for 15-20 years or more. Drink date: 2020-2040. Score - 96. (jebdunnuck.com, Jan. 31, 2020) 750 mL bottle
