Product Description
LP100 "The 2023 Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon is composed of 99% Cabernet Sauvignon and 1% Cabernet Franc. Deep garnet-purple colored, after a little swirling, the nose erupts with a powerful perfume of cassis, violets, and juicy blackberries, giving way to underlying Chinese five spice, dusty soil, and garrigue hints. Full-bodied, the palate is classic To Kalon—rich and structured with firm yet velvety tannins and bags of freshness, finishing long and ferrous. Gorgeous!" Lisa Perrotti-Brown, Sep 2025
DR99 "From the Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard, sourced from blocks near Highway 29, toward the back of the site, closer to the Mayacamas. One-third aged in concrete, and the remaining is aged 20 months in 70% new French oak. This site's characteristic loamy earth and black fruit is evident from the first sniff to the last sip, leading with beautifully fragrant dark berry fruit, ironstone mineral character, and mineral-accented tannins, with excellent mid-palate density and weight, while remaining incredibly light, energetic, and almost bouant. Finishing quote long with great mineral richness and loamy earth intensity. Really a very beautifully built wine capable of long-term cellaring. (Drink between 2026-2040)" Jonathan Cristaldi for Decanter, Mar 2026
