2023 Schrader Cabernet To Kalon

99 POINTS: From the more northern part of To Kalon, just behind the Mondavi Vineyard and touching Beckstoffer's section, the 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon To Kalon Vineyard offers ripe blackcurrants, hints of cassis, sweet tobacco, chocolate, and spicy nuances that give it a complex, nuanced, incredibly layered profile. It hits the palate with full-bodied richness, a round, lush mouthfeel, velvety tannins, and a great finish. Drink this sexy, voluptuous, hedonistic effort over the coming 20 years. There are 2,462 cases produced. Drink 2025-2045.
