Vtg’07 - Perhaps the best wine I have ever tasted from Crocker & Starr in the 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon Stone Place. One hundred percent Cabernet Sauvignon aged 20 months in French oak this 500 cases cuvee from the organically managed Stone Place Vineyard is a dense ruby/purple color with a classic nose of un-smoked cigar tobacco intermixed with blackberries licorice subtle barbecue smoke and cassis. A gorgeous full-bodied texture excellent purity and well-integrated acidity wood and tannin all make for a thrilling wine to drink over the next 15-20 years.
