A classic To Kalon nose of cassis, blackberry, graphite, and violets emerge from the glass. The succulent palate possesses restrained tannins with interlacing layers of sweet black fruit, roasted cocoa bean, pipe tobacco, and smoked meat. An alluring, Bordeaux-like expression of this legendary vineyard, the 2011 vintage will reward patient cellaring. Decanting this wine in its youth will allow it to best display its many intriguing aromas.
