Wine reviews

November 2020

The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard The Grand Daddy has a deep garnet-purple color, barreling out of the glass with energetic notes of fresh blueberries, black raspberries, ripe black and red currants and black olives with hints of cedar chest, powdered cinnamon, pencil lead and camphor. The full-bodied palate is laden with taut, crunchy black fruit, framed by firm, ripe, grainy tannins and seamless freshness, finishing long with loads of mineral sparks. – LPB
