Napa Valley experienced its longest growing season in over a decade, with mild, consistent temperatures that allowed for extended hang time and generous yields. These ideal conditions fostered exceptional fruit development, producing wines of unprecedented depth, harmony, and structure. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis delicious bottling opens with a complex tapestry of blackberry liqueur, crème de cassis, and violet, layered with savory hints of grilled steak, lavender, and warm spice. On the palate, the wine is elegant yet plush, where precise flavors of dark berry preserves meet a distinctly earthy core of gravelly loam and fig. Undeniably age-worthy, we expect a generous 20-25 years in the cellar.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDecanter.com\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRating: 96\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSourced from the Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard in Oakville, this Cabernet Sauvignon was aged for 28 months in 100% new French oak. In 2023, the To Kalon is quite elegant, offering fragrant tobacco-infused black fruit notes with intriguing hints of agave. Full-throttle tannins chiselling into the palate, supported by bracing acidity, which brings lift and freshness. Claus Janzen, the founder, hails from Canada, while Kyle Janzen, the second generation, is now co-owner and general manager. Winemaker Kirk Venge has crafted the wines since 2003. Bacio Divino first produced a wine from this legendary site in 2004, with fruit sourced from blocks closer to Highway 29.
