Las Piedras Vineyard
Cabernet Sauvignon
An aromatic Cabernet Sauvignon from the rich, textured soils of Las Piedras Vineyard, this wine presents a vibrant bouquet with red fruits and herbs, accented by minerality. The vineyard is situated at the base of the Mayacamas Mountains and provides ample drainage and high stress for the vines, challenging them for vigor and producing fruit of incredible concentration and vibrancy. This 100% Cabernet Sauvignon is elegant and structured with a lengthy finish and excellent aging potential.

98 Points International Wine Report
The 2022 Lithology Beckstoffer Las Piedras Cabernet Sauvignon..is a stunning wine that begins with ripe blackberries and succulent black cherries, beautifully complemented by notes of tobacco and a medley of savory herbs and exotic spices, with undertones of graphite, pencil shavings, and dust add a fascinating minerality, reminiscent of the vineyard's unique terroir...."
96 Points Jeb Dunnuck
More red and black fruits, loamy earth, chocolate, and spicy tobacco notes all shine in the 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon Lithology Beckstoffer Las Piedras Vineyard, a slightly richer, broader, sexier wine than the more structured, focused Dr. Crane. This deep ruby/purple-hued Cabernet has sweet tannins, a beautifully layered mouthfeel, and a great finish. Drink bottles over the coming 10-15 years.
