PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
"Our Dr. Crane Cab represents the epitome of balance and gracefulness. The trademark lifted, floral nose, with blue fruits accented with berries, earth and spice, leads into a palate that walks the line of vibrancy and power, delicacy aligned with richness and depth, and is our most beguiling, and truly elegant, wine.

“The full-bodied palate offers fine, intrincate tannins that are
assertive yet harmoious with the dark berry fruit. At the same
time, a rich vein of iron-like minerality and earth mingles with
a fragant cedarwood, herbs and silvers of dark chocolate on
a long satisfying finish. Polished, expresive, and delicious, all
from an exceptional site in a terrific vintage.”

"My favorite of the current offerings from Bulgheroni is the 2021 Lithology Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Dr. Crane Vineyard. It's slightly smoky-oaky on the nose, offering pungent licorice and peppery notes over its deep base of cassis fruit. Full-bodied, it's rich and concentrated, with a long, plush, velvety finish."

"Another absolute blockbuster from this singular vineyard just outside of St. Helena, the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Lithology Beckstoffer Dr. Crane Vineyard is based on 92% Cabernet Sauvignon and 8% Cabernet Franc brought up mostly in oak, with about a fifth in stainless steel. It's one of the bigger, richer wines in the vintage and has a thrilling bouquet of bloody black and blue fruits, iron, spring flowers, and chocolate. Powerful, full-bodied, deep, rich, and concentrated, with incredible extract and density in its aromas and flavors, this insanely good wine has velvety tannins, an incredible mid-palate, and a great finish. Don't miss it. It's gorgeous today, will be insanely good in 4-5 years, and I suspect have 40 years of overall longevity." Jeb Dunnuck 98 Points
