2022 Purlieu To Kalon Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon
The 2022 Purlieu To Kalon Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon is a wine of extraordinary historical significance and breathtaking quality — a single-vineyard Cabernet drawn from one of Napa Valley's most storied and revered vineyard sites, the legendary To Kalon Vineyard in Oakville, whose name translates from Greek as "the highest beauty" and whose Cabernet Sauvignon is widely considered among the finest in the entire world. To Kalon's unique combination of deep, well-drained Bale loam soils, its ideal Oakville exposure, and the natural drainage and root depth it affords the vines produces Cabernet fruit of extraordinary concentration, structural complexity, and aging potential that has anchored some of California's most celebrated wines for more than a century. In Purlieu's meticulous hands, the 2022 vintage yields a To Kalon Cabernet of stunning authority and completeness: aromas of blackcurrant, cassis, dark plum, graphite, violet, new cedar, cocoa, and a mineral depth of remarkable precision and purity build with majestic confidence, while the full-bodied, powerful palate delivers a tannin structure of extraordinary refinement and a finish of seemingly endless resonant length.
The 2022 Purlieu To Kalon Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon is the definitive collector's selection.
