Description
The Cabernet Sauvignon To Kalon CCS 2019 from Schrader Cellars originates from the legendary To Kalon Vineyard in Oakville, one of the most famous and sought-after vineyards in Napa Valley. The CCS ("Clone 4 Cabernet Sauvignon") parcel is considered one of the outstanding sections of this historic vineyard, yielding wines of exceptional depth, concentration, and precision year after year. Schrader has been among the absolute elite of Napa Valley for many years, standing for uncompromising quality and world-class, terroir-driven Cabernet Sauvignons.
The 2019 vintage presents itself as powerful, concentrated, and at the same time impressively precise. Despite its enormous intensity, the wine never appears heavy or overbearing, instead showing remarkable freshness and balance. Rather than pure opulence, the CCS emphasizes structure, elegance, and expression of its origin. This combination of dark fruit, mineral tension, and exceptional depth makes it one of California's most impressive Cabernet Sauvignons.
The aging process is carried out with utmost care, supporting the wine's complexity without overshadowing the identity of the site. This results in an exceptional red wine with enormous density, fine texture, and an almost endless finish. The To Kalon CCS 2019 embodies the essence of great Napa Valley Cabernets and has the potential to develop further over decades.
