Wine Spectator
A velvety, juicy wine with chewy yet velvety tannins. Blackberries. Full-bodied, deep and fruity. Flavorful. Wonderful texture.
Jeb Dunnuck
As always, the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard Schrader shows the more powerful, black-fruited, structured style that’s going to need bottle age. Notes of smoked blackcurrants, crushed rocks, tobacco, and scorched earth all give way to a full-bodied powerhouse of a wine that’s massively structured and tannic. It’s great, but not for those seeking instant gratification.
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
This “Schrader” label comes from Beckstoffer’s To Kalon vineyard in Oakville, produced from clone 4 grown on the C2 block. It is 100 Cabernet Sauvignon and aging in 100 new oak. A very deep purple-black colored barrel sample, WOW, the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard opens with the most amazing, expressive, well-delineated perfume of warm blackberries, black raspberries and blackcurrants plus wafts of violets, star anise, cigar box and graphite and a touch of Ceylon tea. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is built like a brick house, framed by solid, ripe, grainy tannins and seamless freshness, finishing long and earthy.
