Note di degustazione
As with all of these 2013s, the 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard The G.T.O. is an incredible wine that offers an essence of To Kalon-like style in its darker black and blue fruits as well as notes of graphite, crushed stone, chocolate, and hints of flowers. A massive beast of a wine, it brings full-bodied richness, a layered, multi-dimensional mouthfeel, ultra-fine tannins, and a great finish. It's incredible to have a wine of this size delivering so much purity, finesse, and elegance at the same time.

Available only in magnum, the 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer To Kalon The G.T.O., short of any meaningful description, is simply one of the most profound and extraordinary Cabernet Sauvignons I have ever tasted in Napa Valley, and that’s saying something, given the extravagant cascade of great, great wines that have appeared in 2012 and 2013. This has it all. It’s like taking Chateau Latour and reducing it to the essence of that site, combined with the incredible purity, crème de cassis and blackberry fruit of the To Kalon Vineyard. This wine transcends reality -- a mind-boggling effort that every wine lover deserves to taste once in their life. A true bucket list Cabernet Sauvignon, available only in magnum and obviously very limited, it’s a tour de force, a majestic achievement and a showcase for what Napa is increasingly doing. Drink it over the next 50 years.
