2017 Realm - Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard Napa ValleyColour : Red Producer : Realm Label Name : Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard Napa Valley Country : USA Region : California Sub Region : North Coast Appellation : Napa Valley Sub Appellation : 0 Variety : Cabernet Sauvignon Vintage : 2017 Capacity : 750 ml Standard Bottle Rating : AG95 Vinous by Antonio Galloni Tasting Note : Stylistically, the 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard reminds me a bit of the 2014 in its mid

slightly more resinous bouquet with touches of honeysuckle

it's medium to full-bodied

the 2005 Haut-Brion is stratospheric

offering up subtle notions of potpourri

this is a stunner and a wine to drink over the next 20 or more years

Fresh and austere

orange blossom

a lively spine of acidity and chewy structuring extract

and 5% Garnacha
