The Three Kings Beckstoffer To Kalon is crafted from the classic Napa Cabernet clone 7, renown for fruit first profile. It opens up immediately with floral aromatics mixed with dark currants, exotic spices and blue/black fruits. Once again, this To Kalon is noticeably darker and the most virile wine of the Carter Cellar's 2013 offering. Revealing superb balance and concentration it is a successful expression of richness and power - the hallmark of this Beckstoffer To Kalon wine. The pliant mid-palate is composed of firm but sweet tannins which are fully integrated into the plush dark fruit and toasted oak notes. While drinking superb now, give this beautiful wine a few years in the cellar to round out and you’ll be rewarded by mature and developed nuances for 12-18 years to come.
