2013 The Debate, Beckstoffer To Kalon Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley, Magnum (1.5L)

The ever-humorous and clever Jean Hoefliger says about the 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer To Kalon, ?It has the complexity and depth of Sigmund Freud and the integrity of Abraham Lincoln.? Perhaps my tasting notes can?t say it much better than that. It?s a prodigious Cabernet Sauvignon with notes of charcoal embers integrated with blueberry, blackberry and cassis, some lead pencil shavings, unsmoked cigar tobacco, and a massive, full-bodied mouthfeel with incredible purity, structure and intensity. Forget it for 4-5 years and drink it over the following 30+.
