Yes, you are right, I love the 2012 Carter Beckstoffer Cabs and by comparison, I would say that they are both Superior wines, but Carter is my favorite. Carter Beckstoffers display more depth. I would say that the 2012 Era displays a bit more elegance (not to say that Carter wines don't). A/O are probably not as big as Carter wines, but both wines Grand Slams. If you went with A/O I look forward to your comments. BTW 2013 ERA is a 'Killer Wine' too.

    The Alpha Omega 2012 Proprietary Red Blend ERA, consist of 94% Cabernet Sauvignon and the rest Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Petit Verdot. Did you get it, I think you'll be quite satisfied if you do, it's a lovely wine.

Please feel free to share any new discoveries (or under the radar wines) that you experience as I am always interested in Big Cabernets or Red Blends. - Thanks
