Bid on this bottle of 2012 Schrader "T6 - Beckstoffer To Kalon" Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon (95RP, 95WS). Wine Advocate: "The 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard T6, which is from Clone 6 in a different block of Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard, is aged in 86% new Darnajou and 14% new Taransaud. This wine is not terribly different, but Clone 6 is believed to be old Bordeaux clones brought over to Napa Valley and propagated. The wine has terrific fruit intensity, blackcurrants, blackberry, licorice, creosote and espresso roast. Deep, full-bodied, powerful and rich, this, again, shows the vintage’s voluptuous texture, full-bodied power and richness. (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.

Steadily builds from a tight, rich core of mocha-laced currant and blackberry to a broader, more expansive mix that folds in creamy, toasty, mocha-laced oak, unfolding to reveal tiers of flavor and nuance. (JL)
