The Schrader Beckstoffer Piedras Cabernet Sauvignon Colesworthy 2013 is a marvellous offering from this renowned vintner. From the exceptional soils of Napa Valley's esteemed Beckstoffer Las Piedras Vineyard, this sophisticated vintage showcases the deep understanding of terroir held by Schrader's exceptional winemaking team. Exquisitely crafted using meticulous vineyard management, hand-harvesting at peak ripeness, and aging in new French oak barrels, the Schrader Beckstoffer Piedras Cabernet Sauvignon Colesworthy 2013 is a testament to their exacting standards, skill, and passion. The 2013 Colesworthy features deep hues, seductive layers of black cherry, cassis, and distinct minerality. Richly textured, the palate is abounding with opulent dark fruit, underlined by subtle spice and sweet vanilla notes, leading to an extended, beautifully balanced finish. With elegant tannins and focused acidity, this Cabernet Sauvignon epitomises the pedigree of its Napa Valley heritage. |

Wine Advocate (100)The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Old Sparky, which is essentially made from clone 4 from two separate blocks, clone 6 and clone 337, is another perfect wine from the Schraders. I suppose it’s a little boring to say, and perhaps I can be accused of creating unrealistic expectations on the part of readers, but this is as great as Cabernet can be. Tasting like a first-growth Pauillac, the wine is opaque purple and has a fabulous nose of lead pencil, spring flowers, blueberry and blackberry and the telltale cassis. There is also some licorice and sweet oak, the tannins are ripe, and the wine full-bodied. Built like a skyscraper, with an incredible finish (like most of these wines) going on for 50 seconds to a minute, this amazing wine should still be drinking splendidly well at age 25 or 30. |
