Beckmen Vineyards
Cuvée Le Bec Santa Ynez Valley Syrah Blend
Santa Ynez Valley, Central Coast, California, USA
Very good GSM blend. Bought additional bottles. Top 10 2017 tasting at NCWC. Re-Tasting 12/26/17 - fantastic. Taking the unusual step of upping by two points to 92. Re-affirmed 6/21/18. Summer solstice calls for this delicious wine.

Love it. Every vintage. Great fruit. Balanced. Little spice and earth. Nice finish. $20 well spent.

This is one of the better vintages of this cuvée that I can recall. Juicy raspberries, fresh thyme, and white pepper in a medium bodied, easy drinking style. A good buy for $20, I could see buying this by the case for Thanksgiving and Christmas gatherings. I would drink it over the next two years, though, as I don’t think it has the structure for longer cellaring.

An easy drinking red wine. This wine is well balanced. Nice mouth feel.
