Becker Vineyards Iconoclast

Damn this stuff is good. I think I'll finish the bottle. Don't have to work til 4pm tomorrow. Holla.

 

If you can still find the 2004 it is really nice.

 

Funny thing is that bottle is cheaper at HEB than it is at the winery in Fredricksburg. That's just wrong.

 

I found some 2005 for $8 a bottle. Not gonna say where.

 

I tried it a few months back and thought that it didnt live up to my expectations. They were pretty high from reading about it on here. I think ill try it again soon.

 

Becker's is probably my favorite vineyard out of the ones I've visited. Although I have yet to even scratch the surface when it comes to local vineyards.

I highly recommend the 2004 Cabernet-Syrah

mmmm

 

They have the 2006 at Costco right now for seven bucks a bottle. I scored a couple the other day.

 

The '03 and '04 were really exceptional, esp for the money. Not as impressed with the '05 or '06. Maybe it just needs some age, but is probably still one of the better values around.

Excellent choice for the regular Steak and Bob Jones Day.
