WINEMAKER'S NOTES:
Aromas of plum, blackberry, fig, black tea leaf, subtle vanilla notes, sage, and tarragon. Layers of ripe dark fruit, baking spice, toast, and vanilla. Rich and juicy with a pretty structure and fine, well-integrated tannins.
Blend: 83% Cabernet Sauvignon, 11% Cabernet Franc, 2.5% Petit Verdot, 2% Merlot, 1.5% Malbec
TASTING NOTES:
Intense blackberries and black cherries on the nose lead to vivid focused cherries, blueberries and minty, spicy accents on the palate. Firm in tannins and fresh with good acidity, this outstanding wine is well-balanced.
- James Suckling, 94 pts.
The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Oakville is almost all from To Kalon. Dark blue/purplish fruit, lavender, mocha and licorice all build nicely in the glass.
- Vinous, 94 pts.
Generous in feel, this offers up a big gush of boysenberry, plum and blackberry preserve flavors that fold in nicely, with licorice, apple wood and cocoa notes on the finish.
- Wine Spectator, 93 pts.
