Schrader Cellars To Kalon Cabernet 3pk

CCS Beckstoffer 2019 - Fresh berries, berry cocktail, very clear fresh blackcurrant, a hint of mint. In the mouth, the wine starts off smoothly, then appears taut in the tannin, very dry, but also mellow, the acidity seems restrained, which is perhaps only due to the predominance of the extract, the minerality is well pronounced. In its profoundly juicy way, the wine has an appeal that is mainly carried by the fruit. 97/100, Falstaff

Monastery Block 2021, 1b -Deep dark ruby red, with an opaque core, purple hues, subtle brightening on the rim. Aromas of cedar wood and violets, hints of raspberries, increasingly floral with aeration, a hint of cloves. Very powerful, tightly meshed, ripe black cherries, some nougat, a subtle acidity, mineral on the finish, pronounced fruit in the aftertaste, a firm finish, definitely still needs time, very promising. (Drink/storage +40). 98/100, Falstaff

RBS Beckstoffer 2021 - Deep ruby red, opaque core, purple hues, subtle brightening on the rim. Subtle raspberry, a hint of cranberries, blackberry confit, wood, a hint of sea buckthorn, a multi-faceted bouquet. Complex, dense, notes of fine nougat, ripe blueberries, an attractive sweetness, mineral-salty finish, lingers for a very long time, chocolatey touch in the aftertaste, already accessible, with a long ageing potential. (Drink/storage +40). - 97/100, Falstaff
