Note di degustazione
Marked by hints of tomato and tobacco leaf on the nose, the 2019 Lithology Cabernet Franc Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard also features ripe cherries and baking spices. It's full-bodied, velvety and even a bit warm and chocolaty, yet it remains vibrant, long and spicy on the finish.

The 2019 Cabernet Franc Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard just shines for its bouquet, which is classic To Kalon with its floral, incense, spicy, red and black-fruited aromatics. These all flow to a medium to full-bodied, utterly seamless Cabernet Franc that’s balanced, has laser-like precision, and a great finish. This isn’t the biggest or richest wine in the lineup, but it’s Cabernet Franc in all its glory, with soaring aromatics and complexity, ample richness and texture, and a beautiful sense of finesse and elegance. It’s going to keep for 15-20 years with no issues.
The 2019 Cabernet Franc Lithology Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard is a gorgeous wine. The addition of 10% Cabernet Sauvignon works well in adding creaminess and texture to the Franc, something the Dr. Crane Franc in this range has less of. Inky blue/purplish fruit, spice, lavender, licorice and leather build effortlessly in this captivating, wonderfully nuanced Franc from Bulgheroni.
