Tasting notes
A gorgeous expression of this site, the 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard delivers notes of sweet cassis, currants, flowery incense, graphite, and tobacco. Based on 100% Cabernet Sauvignon from Block F and aged 21 months in 76% new French oak, it's full-bodied, ripe, expansive, and seamless on the palate, with that classic To Kalon sexiness and texture. This comes from further back up the hill on the west side of the site and is all 337 clone. Drink this sexy beast any time over the coming 20-25 years. Drink 2025-2050.

The 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer To Kalon is super expressive right out of the gate. It's also surprisingly approachable for a young wine from this vineyard. Black cherry fruit, scorched earth, leather, tobacco and dried herbs open with some coaxing. Best of all, the 2023 will be ready to drink with just a few years in bottle.
Blended from numerous parcels and picks, the 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer To Kalon looks to be another hugely successful vintage. Crushed stone, pencil shavings, black cherries and loamy earth all appear on the nose, while the full-bodied palate is framed by fine-grained tannins, and the finish exhibits terrific length and freshness.
