Tor Wines Beckstoffer To Kalon Clone 6 Cabernet Sauvignon 2008

95 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

The brilliant 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer To-Kalon Vineyard Clone 6 again reveals the first-growth-like nobility and complexity of this phenomenal site in Oakville. Subtle toast/barrique aromas intermixed with creme de cassis, licorice, incense and camphor are followed by a wine of tremendous intensity, full-bodied power, silky tannins and a long, rich, concentrated finish. Already approachable, it will be even better in 5-6 years and last for two decades or more. (RP) (12/2010)

Good full ruby. Knockout nose combines dark berries, flowers, licorice, graphite and cedar. Lush, rich and seamless, with superb refinement to the flavors of currant and graphite. The noble, fine-grained tannins build with air without dominating the wine's fruit. A beauty. (ST) (6/2011)
