From a site in St. Helena, the 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer Las Piedras Vineyard LPV offers a slightly darker, blacker, earthier style to go with tons of blue fruits, black cherries, crushed rock, and chocolate. It picks up a touch of white flowers with time in the glass and is seamless, pure, full-bodied, and structured on the palate. This is another terrific, blockbuster effort from Thomas Brown that's going to benefit from 3-4 years of bottle age and cruise in the cellar for 20+ years

The LPV 2015 is a bold and expressive wine, with aromas of crushed blackberry, graphite, and dried herbs. Its palate is dense and layered, revealing dark fruit, mineral notes, and well-integrated oak. The textured tannins and vibrant acidity culminate in a long, structured finish.
