"Another perfect wine is the 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer To Kalon and readers wanting to know the heights this vineyard can hit need to try this wine. As with all these latest 2015s, this is no shrinking violet and boasts huge notes of blueberries, flowers, graphite, and incense. With a deep, full-bodied style on the palate, masses of tannin, yet not a hard edge to be found and perfect balance, it’s another majestic, profound wine from this team. One of the most thrilling tastings I was able to do for this report, these incredible wines from Realm are made by the talented Frenchman, Benoit Touquette. These are true blockbuster, magical wines I will every reader could taste."
