94 RP. "A noble, first-growth quality effort is the 2004 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer To-Kalon Vineyard (192 cases). Aged in 100% new Taransaud oak, it boasts complex aromas of licorice, toast, creme de cassis, graphite, flowers, and spice. Full-bodied with wonderful opulence, and enough structure, acidity, and tannin to buttress the wealth of fruit and glycerin, this [is a] beautiful Cabernet . . ." Wine Advocate #168, Dec 2006 |
