TOR Kenward Family Wines
Beckstoffer To Kalon Red Wine
This is very special. So well balanced on the nose and palate.
Acids and tannins are rounded, and fine. Strong red currant flavors are presented with blueberries and cinnamon. So well moderated. Beautiful example.

Dec 24th, 2019Among the best 2011 wines I’ve had, I pulled the cork and this was good to go. Tobacco and kirsch on the nose. Explosive dark fruit on the palate, super soft and silky mouthfeel, full bodied, just amazing to me. 72/28 Cab Sauv/Cab Franc.

Jun 24th, 201853/47 cab sauv/cab franc all from To Kalon. Blueberries, blackberries and mocha mix with earth and minerals. This wine is very balanced and the tannins are still very present especially on the finish. Decanted two hours. Will be fun to revisit this in a few years to see how it evolves, though perfectly delicious now.

Dec 9th, 2017Rich, complex, ripe but not overly so & balanced by good acidity. There's still strong tannins but the ripe fruit makes it a smooth, plush drink. There's definitely some earthiness in the mid and finish.

Dec 12th, 2014Another stellar Cabernet from TOR. For the first time ever, Tor decided to pick from the few rows of Cabernet Franc at To Kalon, using 28% in this years bottling.
