Beckstoffer’s vineyard in Oakville, first planted in 1868 by viticultural and winemaking icon Hamilton Crabb, has long been regarded as the source of Napa Valley’s finest Cabernet Sauvignon grapes. This section of the vineyard is situated in the heart of the valley. An alluvial fan provides excellent mineral deposits, and the rich soils are filled with marine sediment. The vines receive full sun and optimal heat during the day and are cooled by marine fog at night. These conditions allow each of the three clones planted in this vineyard (4, 6, and 337) to display its own unique character, and this celebration of individuality is the essence of Schrader.

Current condition: Likely past it
The Californian 2000 vintage was difficult and the wines reflect this.
The weather was initially good with a warm, dry spring however excessive heat struck in June destroying some of the harvest. A warm September helped to fully ripen Merlot and provided ideal conditions...
