winemaker's notes:
We are proud to present our portfolio of 100 percent Cabernet Sauvignon wines
from two of Napa Valley's most prestigious and historic vineyard estates—the
Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard in Oakville and the Beckstoffer Georges III
Vineyard in Rutherford. With both outstanding locations, we combine
meticulous vineyard management with "no holds barred" winemaking practices
to produce elegant wines of exceptional depth, richness, and character that we
feel are the highest and most authentic expression of these noble vineyards.
critical acclaim:
"The 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon RBS Clone 337 Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard bursts onto the palate with a rich of dark red berries, flowers, mint and minerals. The 2010 possesses striking inner perfume and fabulous richness. This is all finesse and elegance. Ripe, silky tannins frame the finish. The RBS is totally sexy and flat-out captivating. Bright, floral notes linger in the empty glass. Right now, this is the most promising of the 2010s. In 2010 the clonal base for the RBS bottling is clone 337 from Blocks B1, B2 and E2, the latter a new addition in this vintage. Anticipated maturity: 2020-2030.Rating: 96-98 "

The Wine Advocate
"Combines power with finesse, though at this point the torque wins out, pushing this into overdrive. Tiers of spice, flowers and dark and red berry, with notes of licorice, flow before the tannins clamp down, giving the wine a chewy aftertaste. Ends with a teasing lift. Best from 2016 through 2030."
