CARPE VINUM 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon - Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard, Napa Valley | 750mL

When you think of To Kalon, think of this wine. Immersive and seductive, powerful and ethereal, decadent and sumptuous. Expertly matured for two years in 100% new Taransaud French Oak barrels, as soon as the cork is pulled, you find yourself surrounded by a constellation of forest floor, roasted mushroom, ripe blackberries, and balsamic reduction. The rich and velvety palate expands beautifully, though without great length, and shimmers with Provençal herbs, dark plums, malted chocolate, and rhubarb pastry. There is an opulence here that is undeniable, and the natural acidity retained will allow beautiful aging potential upwards of 2034. If you cannot wait that long, we advise allowing at least 2 hours of decanting to truly enjoy, and perhaps enjoy a bottle of 2019 Star Springs Ranch while you wait.
