Carter Cellars Beckstoffer Las Piedras Vineyard La Bam Cabernet Sauvignon 2017
At the foot of Spring Mountain along the banks of Sulphur Springs lies the Beckstoffer Las Piedras Vineyard – a 22 acre site renowned for its naturally low yields and well draining soil. These slightly less stressed vines are closer to the riverbed and sit on slightly more rocky and well draining soil than the ‘La Verdad’. Like a smack in the face, ‘La BAM’, boasts a full rich bold palate of red and black fruits matched with graphite, wet gravel, chocolate and savory spices. Matched with sweet firms from Darnajou barrels, this wine ends with a lengthy prodigious finish that has to be tasted to be believed.
