Winemaker notes: The Beckstoffer To Kalon Cabernet Sauvignon has notes of red and black fruits, an extra dimension in the midpalate that they call "baby fat," powerful tannins and overall opulence but with such class and pedigree.
Critical Acclaim
RP 99
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Composed of 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard has a deep garnet-purple color, requiring a little coaxing before it spills out of the glass with fantastically showy blackberry preserves, boysenberries and cassis notes, plus hints of black raspberries, clove oil and potpourri, with a touch of tobacco leaf. The decadent, full-bodied palate sports a firm backbone of ripe, grainy tannins with beautiful freshness. All that generous black fruit melds seamlessly into a very long, mineral-laced finish.

The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon To Kalon Vineyard offers up a sweeter, sexier nose than the Dr. Crane release and is loaded with red and black currant fruits as well as flowery incense, unsmoked tobacco, chocolate, and exotic spices. Ultra-pure, ripe, as opulent as they come, and just heavenly juice any way you look at it, it can be enjoyed any time over the coming 20-25 years, probably longer. (12/2021)

"Red tile and red fruit, turning to lead pencil. Lavender and sliced plums. Medium-bodied and very tight with a compact palate that is tight, linear and very long. Pure. Goes to iodine and crushed stone. Drink in 2027." (3/2022)
97 points Vinous
"The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer To-Kalon Vineyard captures so much of what makes the Realm wines so appealing. It is maybe just a bit pushed in terms of its ripeness profile, but not as heavy or unctuous as in some past years. Blueberry jam, creme de cassis, lavender, licorice, spice and gravel build as the 2019 opens in the glass. This heady, full-throttle Cabernet is sure to delight Realm fans. (AG)"(8/2021)
