Holy shit .... TOR BTK are some of my current favs, but even for them this is drinking stunning right now. Decanted about an hour. Smooth, complex, fills every part of your mouth, 90 sec finish (or longer) I didn't put a stop watch on it. I still had it hanging on by the time I wanted another sip.

Delightfully elegant and restrained. Native yeast fermentation, no fining or filtering, just good old school vineyard management and gentle vinification. Agree with other tasting notes presented here. Might have been enjoyed 1-2 years earlier just to have a but more To Kalon power but lovely anytime.

Decanted and served. Gorgeous single-vineyard, single-clone effort from America's best vineyard. Pure, concentrated but not over the top, cassis, licorice, and sweet tobacco. Long finish. Light pipe tobacco on the nose. Really good for the vintage and drinking well now although Parker gives it till 2035!

Smooth, deep, loaded with classic aging cabernet flavors.
