Carter Cellars
The O.G. Beckstoffer To-Kalon Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon
Napa Valley, California, USA
This was terrific. Very big and full-bodied with excellent concentration. This one has the stuffing to age a good long while.

Young, but circumstances be as they may...
Had to open one, very deep concentrated dark black fruit. Tannins present & are not overwhelming in this big wine. As always, opened nicely on day 2! Save em' for 3-4 years if you can; gotta love Mike Smith's efforts with all Carter's wines! Cheers!?

King Under the Mountain Vol. 3 Tasting Event.
My wine steward brought me a chalice of this to pair with the mutton dish. I liked it so much that my steward’s miserable life. #payitforward

Blue and red fruit on the nose. Subtle tannin for being so young. Very well rounded. This will be monumental in time. Thank you Alan Krenek

Inky red. All fruit on the nose, with noticeable oak. Soft and supple palate, long finish. Great.

@Mark Carter @Mike Smith -Carter Cellars
This is their "The OG" Beckstoffer ToKalon Vineyard Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon
Pop N Pour
Great Oakville "dirt" Loamy aromatics!
Very concentrated, gobs of glycerin, dense, full bodied pleasure. Like a meal in a glass!
Parker gave it 94 Points in 2014, after some bottle age in the Cellar; I'm say more like 96!
Enjoy & Cheers! 🍇🍷👍
