Realm 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon, ToKalon Oakville, Napa Valley

TWI 98 Points; “The 2022 Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon is composed of 94% Cabernet Sauvignon and 6% Cabernet Franc. Deep garnet-purple colored, it prances out of the glass with showy scents of violets, dark chocolate, juicy blueberries, and kirsch, leading to hints of menthol, cedar chest, and Chinese five spice. The medium to full-bodied palate offers layers of exotic spices and earthy nuances, supported by firm, lightly chewy tannins and plenty of freshness, finishing with epic length. That classic To Kalon power really comes through on the finish!

Winery Notes: “Red and black fruits; an extra dimension in the midpalate that we call baby fat; powerful tannins; overall opulence but with such class and pedigree”s
