Macauley Beckstoffer To Kalon 2019

The 2019 Cabernet Franc Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard is up with the crème de la crème of the vintage and is a great example of the quality that can be found today in these Cabernet Franc releases. Straight-up gorgeous aromatics of currants, blue fruits, earthy minerality, flowery incense, and background oak define the aromatics, and it’s full-bodied, with a plush, mouth-filling style, gorgeous tannins, and one heck of a great finish. I love it today, yet I see no reason it shouldn’t evolve for 15-20 years if well stored.
