The ethereal 2021 TOR ‘Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard’ Cabernet Sauvignon is equally good as the otherworldly 2019 bottling. It is a joy to go back to after first tasting. Very inky in the glass, this is highly perfumed with loamy soils that combine with creme de cassis, anise, Black Forest cake and suggestions of tar. The palate is utterly seamless, showing great flavor density, richness and bright tension that makes this glide throughout the drinking experience. Kudos to Jeff Ames and the winemaking team in crafting this total stunner. Just an infant now, it will be exceedingly fun to see this evolve over the next twenty five years.

Lastly, the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard is based largely on clone 337, and it’s a wonderfully complete, classic expression of this vineyard. Red, blue, and black fruits, smoked tobacco, loamy earth, and chocolate notes all define the bouquet, and it hits the palate with full body, a layered, powerful, multi-dimensional mouthfeel, velvety tannins, and a blockbuster styled profile that is guaranteed to put a smile on your face.

Inky and floral on the nose with black currant and lead pencil aromas that follow through to a medium body with juicy fruit and a terra-cotta note coming through. Very fine velvety texture. Flavorful and delicious. Very To Kalon. Drink after 2027.
