Medium to full-bodied, the palate is full-on seductive, with wonderfully perfumed layers emerging through the frame of very finely knit yet firm tannins, finishing with epic length and depth.\"\n— Lisa Perrotti-Brown"},{"type":"text","value":", "},{"type":"text","value":"The Wine Advocate","italic":true}]},{"type":"paragraph","children":[{"type":"text","value":""}]},{"type":"paragraph","children":[{"type":"text","value":"99 Pts.","bold":true},{"type":"text","value":" \"Flirting with perfection, the 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard T6 comes all from clone 6 (there are less than 4 acres of clone 6 planted) and is always the last cuvee to be harvested.

Like all of Brown’s 2015s, it’s packed with fruit, yet its purity and balance are off the charts.\"\n— Jeb Dunnuck"},{"type":"text","value":", "},{"type":"text","value":"JebDunnuck.com","italic":true}]},{"type":"paragraph","children":[{"type":"text","value":""}]},{"type":"paragraph","children":[{"type":"text","value":"93 Pts.","bold":true},{"type":"text","value":" \"Plush, rich fruit rises to the top of this opulent offering, with layers of blackberry, dusty, loamy earth and spicy, cedary oak flavors, backed by a firm mix of tannins and spice.
