“From a grand cru site in Oakville, the 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer To-Kalon Vineyard is a sensational effort. A Pauillac from Napa, it reveals classic aromas of high quality unsmoked cigar tobacco intermixed with graphite, creme de cassis, licorice, and spice. Fabulously rich and complex, with stunning concentration, a terrific mouthfeel, and amazing opulence as well as length, this [is] brilliant Cabernet Sauvignon . . .”
