Bid on this bottle of 2012 Schrader "CCS - Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard" Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon (100RP, 96JS, 96VN). Wine Advocate: "The 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer to Kalon Vineyard CCS is Clone 4 from another block, and always seems to hit all the sweet spots on my palate. It’s aged 20 months in 100% new Darnajou barrels. The good news is there are 520 cases of it. Just a prodigious wine, this spectacular Cabernet Sauvignon is inky bluish/purple with a gorgeous nose of spring flowers, blueberry, blackberry and cassis fruit, a touch of background toast and graphite. It has a very full-bodied, multidimensional mouthfeel and a skyscraper-like finish. It is fabulously open, sexy and a total thrill to smell and taste. (RP)" (10/2014)

Included in this lot · 1 bottle

Provenance: Purchased directly from the winery and stored in the temperature controlled wine cellar of a San Francisco based collector.

This is very rich and bright with loads of fruit and spice character. Some fresh berry too. Full-bodied, very firm and chewy, yet bright and intense. Muscular and powerful. A beauty.
