Sourced from the Beckstoffer Missouri Hopper Vineyard in Oakville, this simply outstanding Cabernet Sauvignon from Alpha Omega opens to a profound bouquet of crème de cassis, dark currants, anise and black olives. It continues to impress with its full body, remarkable texture and velvety tannins, as the wine glides effortlessly along the mid-palate as it is underlined by lovely acidity keeping it beautifully balanced. The plush texture combined with delicious flavors of mocha, mint, crème de cassis and anise make this nothing short of irresistible, nevertheless it should continue to age gracefully for many years to come. A fabulous effort from winemaker Jean Hoefliger.
