2013 | The Debate | Beckstoffer Missouri Hopper Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon

The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Missouri Hopper, which comes from another Oakville Beckstoffer Vineyard, is spectacular. Opaque purple in color, the wine offers up notes of white chocolate, blackberry and cassis, some subtle background oak, rich, foresty notes, a full-bodied, opulent texture, and terrific purity and overall harmony.

Reviews:

• Wine Advocate: The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Missouri Hopper, which comes from another Oakville Beckstoffer Vineyard, is spectacular. Opaque purple in color, the wine offers up notes of white chocolate, blackberry and cassis, some subtle background oak, rich, foresty notes, a full-bodied, opulent texture, and terrific purity and overall harmony.

• Wine Enthusiast: Made by Jean Hoefliger, this is one of three Beckstoffer vineyard-designates meant to spark debate. It is dusty and inviting in spicy cola cinnamon and clove. The tannins are polished and soft, and ultimately elegant, as a core of juicy cassis glistens in supportive acidity, lingering brightly along a firm, well-defined finish.

Producer Information

Wines, like people, are a reflection of their origin and evolution. The Debate began in 2010 when two friends brought their unique perspectives together to create thought provoking and delicious wines that extend beyond the sense of taste to the thrill of telling stories and the art of listening. By selecting three different vineyards with three different expressions of Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, the Debate seeks to point out the diversity of terroir as well as the diversity of people. We live in an age where less and less time is spent at the dinner table discussing these different points of view. The Debate mission is to bring people together to share a glass of wine to discuss and debate just as our team does.
