This Old Vine Field Blend is a luscious combination of ancient-vine

but lots of acidity to keep it tasting fresh

Peppery and meaty on the nose

wood smoke

Schrader, Napa Valley, RBS Beckstoffer To Kalon, Cabernet Sauvignon 2006 Barbaresco This Old Vine Field Blend99 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate Nearly perfect, the opaque purple colored 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer To Kalon RBS reveals notes of graphite, charcoal, blackberries, cedar, creme de cassis, and a hint of chocolate. Oodles of concentration, remarkable purity and density, and a finish that lasts over 60 seconds suggest this beauty should drink well for 20 25 years. (RP) (6 2008)
