"The first-growth quality 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer To-Kalon Vineyard (100% Cabernet Sauvignon) is pure creme de cassis, cedarwood, and blueberry fruit intermixed with notions of roasted coffee and high quality French oak. Deep, full-bodied, and backward with velvety tannin as well as an expansive, substantial mouthfeel as well as length, this Cabernet should easily age . . . . An outstanding, small, high quality winery that did not make it into my Napa report in issue #186, Realm has turned out a beautiful portfolio of 2007 reds, all of which are made at Chateau Boswell in Napa Valley. The innovative blends (all dedicated to William Shakespeare) are of very high quality."
