Note di degustazione
There are a tiny 100 cases of the 2019 Red Blend Reserve To Kalon, which is an interesting blend of Malbec, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot, mostly from the Monastery Block in the To Kalon Vineyard. Beautiful red and blue fruits as well as lots of floral and spicy notes define the bouquet, and it's medium to full-bodied, seamless, and elegant on the palate. It's not a blockbuster but shines for its balance, purity, and finesse. It's beautifully done.

A Bordeaux-style blend from the winery's portion of the famous To Kalon Vineyard, the 2019 Red Wine To Kalon Vineyard The Reserve features attractive scents of cherries, suede, baking spices and vanilla. It's full-bodied, rich, velvety and even a bit open-knit, maybe a touch coarse on the finish. It's flavorful and easy to drink, but it doesn't seem to have the concentration or structure to age more than about 8 to 10 years.
The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve To Kalon shows beautiful elegance and poise, with classic cassis and currant fruits supported by complex dried herb, unsmoked tobacco, and flowery incense nuances. Coming from gravelly, well-drained soils, it’s full-bodied, has classic To Kalon opulence, ripe tannins, and a great finish. It’s an utterly classic Napa Valley beauty to enjoy over the coming 30-40 years.
