“A true reflection of place. Grapes selected for our Oakville Red Blend were grown on low-fertility, well-drained soils with optimal sun exposure, enabling development of rich, complex flavors and astounding fruit maturity.”

Vintage Notes

“The 2019 vintage could be called a winemaker’s dream. A long summer brought each block to its ideal ripeness. Fruit was hand-harvested between September 26 and October 22 before aging for 21 months in French oak barrels (100% New).”

Tasting Notes

“Aromas: Blackberry, cherry, toasted almond, bay leaf, and mocha.

Flavors: Luscious ripe cherry and cassis, with savory notes of dried herbs and toast.

Body: Rich, weighty, and mouth-coating with classic fine To Kalon tannins.”

93 Points Wine Enthusiast – “With everything from raspberries to blueberries to dark chocolate, this concentrated wine is delicious. Lots of fruit and a dash of oak spices are carried nicely by moderate tannins and good acidity for a complete and balanced expression. Best through 2030.”

92 Points Wine Spectator – “Reserved in style, with a core of gently mulled black currant and blackberry fruit liberally laced with singed cedar, vanilla and tobacco leaf accents. Reveals a late tug of warm paving stone on the finish. Shows more of its Cabernet Franc edge in the end. Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot. Best from 2024 through 2032. 1,482 cases made.”
