  Full bodied, smooth rich blueberry and blackberry fruit, hints of tobacco. Beckstoffer Tokalon rich flavor profile is so different than other appellations in Napa. So opulent with sweet dark fruits and savory and exotic spice. My last 08.

  Amazing!! Wow! Incredible wine, hints of tobacco and a long finish. It is a very soft cab. I really enjoyed drinking this wine.

  I'm not a huge Cab fan, so this score may be low. That said, I did really enjoy this along with my bacon-wrapped ribeye roast. Good dark fruit and plenty of earth, but well integrated. Long finish.

  This is very approachable. Delicious, even, with 30 minutes of air. Very classic valley floor fruit. I'd call it medium-full bodied for Napa Valley floor Cab - certainly not as jammy as a Schrader from the same vineyard/vintage. Not a lot of tannin present on the palate. Cassis and licorice on the sweet nose; a touch of heat, too, sometimes. It's all there for a Cab lover.
