Becklyn 2018 Release

Becklyn 2018 release today, who is buying?

I am buying, for sure the Napa Valley. Debating on the rest though.

I picked up a few Hopper and NV. These should be good value for '18.

In for 6 NV, passed on everything else, but mainly because of budgeting.

Bought 8 bottles… 6 Napa, 2 Moulds.

2 napa and 1 Pangkarra.

2 NV. The 16 was

Was about to pull the trigger and then I got an email from Carter

Same. The NV is one of my favorite go-tos. Need to balance things out and prepare for Carter’s release (which typically is my largest each year)

Thank you for the reminder!

Looking forward to theses!

Can’t/won’t pass these up.

In for 4 of the Napa, excellent juice and reasonable shipping.

I wish there was time on the Mike and Leah Smith Zoom chat to dive into the differences/similarities of the Myriad/Quivet/Becklyn/Scarlett etc wines. Maybe they can do another zoom to get into those detail [cheers.gif] I do think that the Becklyn NV is my favorite of the bunch at the $65 price point. In for at least 3.

Does anyone know what Jeb Dunnuck’s ratings were for these? I see that there are tasting notes in the Becklyn email, but wondering points. I don’t think it’ll change my plans for Becklyn, just was curious. I recently had a 2016 and 2017 NV, and they were both drinking great with a short decant. Always one of my favorites!

Napa valley 91-93
Moulds 91-94
Hopper 92-94

Thanks Brent. Do you recall what the score for 2017 NV was? I found that to be quite delicious, especially for the vintage. Wondering how 18s rating aligns with 17.

8 NV
No brainer
Wish I could afford the case but unchartered times…
