The Story
The 2022 To Kalon Cabernet is unlike any single vintage we have made from this iconic vineyard. I’ve tried the wine from tank to bottle, and the comparison I come up with the most is a blend of the 2015 and 2019 vintages. This wine shows black raspberries, red cherries, and a bit of carne asada (think Texas brisket also). I originally thought the 2022 Beckstoffer To Kalon would be showy early on, but the more I taste it, the more I’m convinced the wine will benefit from some bottle age.
