Beckstoffer To Kalon Cabernet Franc 2016

It’s darker than I remember from the last one I had. Brooding, bold tannins. Lots of chocolate and baking spices on the aromas. Delicious — a month ago

@Mike R and Rhonda - THANK YOU.
Very similar to the Macauley, just a little more extracted. But I felt this was slightly fuller on the palate, with a little more precision with the varietal expression. Again, another youthful wine with runway ahead of it. Marvelous now tho.

Reserve Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2013

It felt a bit on the edge. This was a bottle bought not direct from the producer so might have had some impact. Color was not browning but not the normal clean purple so I’m hoping others are better. — 4 months ago

Another wonderful gift from @Mike R and his lovely wife Rhonda.
We rarely drink cab franc, so this was a rare treat. Never as dense as a cab, but presents a lithe texture with a silky smooth mouth feel. Lots of minerality combine with soft oak and overripe cherries. Very well done and complemented our meal perfectly. For its age, it’s still a baby!
