The 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer To Kalon The O.G. is clearly a 25- to 30-year wine. This is profound wine, opulent with loads of spice, pen ink, blackberry and cassis, forward aromatics with floral notes and forest floor. The wine has stunning concentration and a mouth-filling, savory, unctuosity. This is great stuff and delicious already. About 223 cases were made and it finished at 14.9% natural alcohol – about the same as the other wines.
The 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard The O.G. is the wine where everything comes together. The fruit is ripe, but not too ripe. There is plenty of intensity and richness in the glass, but all the elements fall into place effortlessly. On the palate, the O.G. is sensual, silky and voluptuous, with all the best attributes of this famous site front and center. Crème de cassis, lavender and licorice are some of the many notes that build in the glass in this fabulous Cabernet Sauvignon. The O.G. captures the best of Mark Carter's style.
