Description: | 99+ Points | RPâVery deep purple-black colored, the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard (a barrel sample) soars out of the glass with pronounced crème de cassis, blackberry tart and blueberry compote notes plus hints of chocolate box, cinnamon stick, rose oil and spice box. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is densely laden with black fruit preserves and spicy accents, supported by firm, grainy tannins and seamless freshness, finishing with great length and depth. Possessing a lot more power than many 2018s, this is truly a show-stopper in the making!â - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate99 Points | JSâThis is a powerful and very rich red with superb concentration of tannins that run through the center palate and go on endlessly. Full-to medium-bodied. Amazing.â - James SucklingWinery NotesâSourced from block C2 for over 20 years, our latest vintage is one of the strongest expressions of this Oakville site and its unique terroir. Densely saturated crimson in its appearance, the wine opens with complex aromas of crème de cassis, sweet tobacco, and scents of lavender and violets. A mĂŠlange of huckleberry, dark cherry and black plum are delineated on the palate alongside hints of grilled herbs and savory spices. Framed by supple tannins and an underlying mineral acidity, our 2018 finishes with grip and tension.â |
