95 Pts. "For longtime Schrader collectors, this is the 'new' Schrader's Schrader. Since the fruit sourcing transitioned from Beckstoffer To Kalon to Mondavi's To Kalon side, vineyard manager Blake Wood has begun identifying blocks that meet the high-quality standards. "This, in a way, mimics the RBS bottling of Schrader," says winemaker Thomas Rivers Brown, as he and Wood work to capture key blocks within the 177-hectare Mondavi To Kalon site that define the essence of this bottling. Aged for 20 months in 100% new French oak, Brown notes that the structure is excellent, the colour more saturated, and the palate more structured than ever. Intended to be the approachable drinker of the lineup—similar to the former RBS bottling, which featured Clone 337—this wine offers vibrant, upfront appeal. Expect dark cherry cola notes, a touch of sassafras, sweet oak spices, and mocha. Medium to full-bodied with a racy, fresh backbone, it features fine-grained, velvety tannins that lead into a finish layered with wild herbs, fennel and pressed flowers—a lively and captivating wine." — Jonathan Cristaldi, Decanter

94 Pts. "I loved the 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon To Kalon Vineyard. It's a round, layered, supple, superb expression of the vineyard that has full-bodied richness, a round, layered, seamless mouthfeel, no hard edges, and sweet tannins. It's not going to make old bones, but given its balance and suppleness, I wouldn't be surprised to see this evolve gracefully either. Drink bottles over the coming 12-15 years." — Jeb Dunnuck, JebDunnuck.com

95 Pts. "Red and black plums, cassis, spice oak, violets, and incense nuances all shine in the 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon To Kalon Vineyard Heritage Clone, a pure, concentrated, elegant To Kalon that's full-bodied, has pure, polished tannins, terrific balance, and a great finish. It's a structured, big, burly wine in 2022 that warrants 2-4 years in the cellar. It should keep through at least 2037." — Jeb Dunnuck, JebDunnuck.com

95 Pts. "Dusty mineral notes and dried violets complement the black cherry fruit, enriched by layers of loamy earth. The tannins are soaring, supporting a full-bodied richness highlighted by abundant black cherry and lavish cola spices. Crunchy red fruit emerges on the lengthy finish, adding a fresh, vibrant element. The wine is rich, inviting, and beautifully balanced despite its 15.3% ABV, showcasing depth and elegance. The Monastery Blocks are located near the Carmelite Monastery at the southern end of the Mondavi To Kalon section. These blocks have historically provided the backbone for Mondavi Reserve Cabernet wines from the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s—wines that remain vibrant and show beautifully in the glass decades later." — Jonathan Cristaldi, Decanter

95 Pts. "Cassis, darker chocolate, lead pencil, and smoked tobacco all emerge from the 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon To Kalon Vineyard Monastery Block, a beautifully textured, full-bodied 2022 that has plenty of mid-palate depth, ripe, polished tannins, and a great finish. It doesn't get much better in the vintage, and while it has the upfront appeal of the vintage, I wouldn't be surprised to see it evolve gracefully for upwards of two decades." — Jeb Dunnuck, JebDunnuck.com

95 Pts. "Sourced from the DN2 block at the base of the Hartwell Estate, this wine is terrifically lush with a dark-fruited profile and compelling layers of complexity. Notes of capsicum, fennel, and thyme mingle with tobacco and graphite, adding intrigue to the nose. Full-bodied, it boasts a rich core of loamy earth complemented by a host of ripe blueberry fruit, bay leaf, and firm, fine-grained tannins. The structure is beautifully framed by aspine of crisp, crunchy acidity, delivering balance and vibrancy—a wine with depth and poise." — Jonathan Cristaldi, Decanter

93 Pts. "Coming from a single block in this Stag's Leap vineyard, the 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon Wappo Hill Vineyard is deep ruby/plum-hued and reveals a lifted, perfumed nose of red plums, incense, darker chocolate, and graphite-driven aromatics. These carry to a medium to full-bodied, concentrated, textured, expressive 2022 that's perfect for drinking over the coming 10-15 years." — Jeb Dunnuck, JebDunnuck.com
