2023

The 2023 Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard Cabernet Franc is made from 76% Cabernet Franc, 24% Cabernet Sauvignon. Deep garnet-purple colored, it leaps with vibrant notes of black raspberries and kirsch, leading to a core of wild blueberries, pencil shavings, menthol, and cedar, with a touch of iron ore. The full-bodied palate delivers a firm frame of grainy tannins with a lively line defining the earth-laced black fruit layers, finishing long and ferrous.
