Carter Cellars 2019 Cabernet “La Bam” Las Piedras 98 Points

Jeb Dunnuck 98 Points: “The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Las Piedras Vineyard La BAM comes from a top site outside of Saint Helena and is all Clone 4 Cabernet from a center parcel in the vineyard. It’s a ripe, soft, seductive wine offering loads of blue fruits, tobacco, bouquet garni, and violet aromas and flavors. Medium to full-bodied and seamless on the palate, I don’t think it matches the 2018, but it’s still a rare mix of power and elegance, with a terrific sense of minerality on the finish.”
