Country: US / Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon California
Winery: Knights Bridge / Napa Valley
The vineyard is, of course, in Oakville, which makes you wonder why they put the generic Napa Valley on the label. The wine itself, which is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, is very dry and tannic. Flamboyant, too, with deep black currant flavors bathed in 100% new French oak. Feels lavish and important, but young. Better left untouched for 6–8 years.
