Decanter: 99 Punkte
A knockout Cabernet from the Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard in Oakville. Deeply brooding and explosive aromas of inky blackberry fruit intermix with graphite, exotic spices, creme de cassis, and purple flowers. Luxuriating on the palate, broad and supple, with ultra-fine-grained tannins that are beamlike, supported by a firm spine of acidity. For all this wine’s richness, it is precise and energetic, with an airy lightness on the long, earth-driven and spicy finish.
