2011 Carter Cellars
Cabernet Sauvignon The G T O
Beckstoffer
To Kalon
Vineyard
A new cuvee, which I tasted from magnum, the 2011 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer To Kalon The G. T. O. has a dark ruby/purple color as well as sweet forest floor, graphite and smoky oak aromas and flavors. Medium-bodied, supple and plush, it should drink well for 7-10 years. For a number of years, this has been one of most impressive portfolios in Napa Valley, and as one might expect, the 2010s are outrageous offerings..-RP
