2021 Myriad, Beckstoffer Georges III Cabernet Sauvignon, Rutherford 12x75cl
Blend: 100% Cabernet Sauvignon
Vintage production: 150 cases
120 spectacular hectares in the middle of the valley floor, the Beckstoffer Georges III Vineyard had its first grapes planted by... Elizabeth Rutherford in 1895. Famed history flows through the veins of this historic vineyard from Georges De La Tour to Andre Tchelistcheff.
This site was put on the map by Mike's former mentor, Thomas Rivers Brown at Schrader Cellars. Mike has now usurped Thomas as the best exponent of this historic Rutherford vineyard with the highest ever scores for a 'G III' Cabernet Sauvignon: potential perfection with 98-100pt WA.
In 1988 the Beckstoffer Georges III was replanted using new Cabernet Sauvignon Clones with tighter spacing and advanced trellising systems enhancing both quality and grape tonnage.
The Myriad Beckstoffer Georges III blocks are positioned on slight uplifts and rolling knolls, offering better drainage, early ripening and delicious and integrated natural acidity. Wonderfully, in 2009 – 73ha were placed under a land conservation easement that forever prohibits non-agricultural development.
