2019 Fait-Main Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Missouri Hopper
5/18/2024 - AGELVIS Likes this wine: 96 Points
Two and a half hour decant. Very deep dark electric magenta color. Blackberry, blueberry, milk chocolate, dark raspberry thumbprint cookie, and subtle bay leaf. Dry, plush, fine velvety palate. Nice, bright, lingering acidity. Satiny tannins on the long finish.
This is more exciting than my notes make it sound. The fruit is elevated, there is terrific structure, and there’s an overall refinement that hard to articulate. Drinking awesome right now and likely going to be better in the next two years.

2016 Robert Craig Cabernet Sauvignon Howell Mountain

90-minute double decant. Very deep dark magenta core, with more faded ruby color outside. Mushroom, milk chocolate, blackberry, cassis, waffle cone, and subtle candy corn. Smooth , dry palate. Full tannins on the longish finish.
This was the surprising WOTN at our monthly supper club. It’s definitely drinking at its peak for my palate. Excellent QPR here.

2016 Mt. Brave Cabernet Sauvignon

One hour double decant. Nearly opaque magenta color (i.e., no sign of age). Apple core, charred coconut, licorice, and cassis. Very dry, smooth palate. Firm, medium intensity tannins on the longish finish.
I’ve had two of these in the past year and neither was great. I bought 6 bottles of the ‘18. Here’s to hoping they don’t disappoint.
