2011 Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon

Not surprisingly, the 2011 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard possesses the sweetest tannins as well as the biggest, sexiest nose of red and black fruits, licorice, incense and camphor. Soft, round, and not as concentrated as the greatest vintages, it is a sensual, lovely, opulent Cabernet to enjoy over the next decade. Alpha Omega, which has been in existence for nearly a decade, is located in a handsome building on Highway 29. The wines are made by Jean Hoefliger, teamed with the famous globe-trotting Bordeaux oenologist, Michel Rolland. I have noticed incremental improvement in these cuvées, and the 2011s generally performed well. Tel. (707) 963-9999
