The Latest from Karl Lawrence Cellars
Going out in the mail today is an Offering Letter for the release of our 2005 vintage Single Vineyard Designate Barrel-Select Cabernet Sauvignon from our Beckstoffer To Kalon and Beckstoffer Dr. Crane vineyards. These wines will be offered to all who purchased the 2005 Karl Lawrence main blend. They will not be made available to restaurants or wine retailers.
The 2005 Single Vineyard Designate Barrel-Select Beckstoffer To Kalon and Beckstoffer Dr. Crane in front of our rows (34-42) at the Beckstoffer Dr. Crane vineyard in St. Helena.
TN: The Beckstoffer To Kalon is a clone #6 Cabernet Sauvignon. This wine is an expression of its terrior as well as its clonel selection. Aromas of dense black fruit and spice lead way to big flavors of dark chocolate, dark fruits and spice. They all come together in a full bodied, firmly structured Cabernet. This wine is big and bold and has the structure to match.
The Beckstoffer Dr. Crane Vineyard contains the clone #337 Cabernet Sauvignon, which produces a wine that undoubtedly stands on its own. This wine is expressive with silky forward aromas of currant, black cherry and mocha. The generous rich flavors come together in harmony, showing off its complexity and balance. This Cabernet shows amazing richness, and intensity. The harvest gave us slightly more of this wine.

Kirsten & Tom Minasian
Kirsten and Tom have visited with us for three years in a row and have always managed to come on the day of bottling. This is strange as we're not exactly sure when we're going to bottle. So for next year, I've asked them to tell us when we're going to bottle.
