95 WA. "Deep garnet in color, the 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard sashays out of the glass with flamboyant Chinese five spice, chocolate mint, hoisin and tapenade wafts over a core of crème de cassis, blueberry compote and cedar chest with a waft of balsamic. Full-bodied, concentrated and jam-packed with black berry preserves and exotic spices, it has a solid, chewy frame and bold freshness, finishing long with a minty kick." Wine Advocate, Jan 2020 |
