Vineyard: To Kalon
Varietal: Cabernet Sauvignon
Accolades: 96-98 points, Jeb Dunnuck
Our To Kalon Vineyard bottling is produced from 100% Clone 15 Cabernet Sauvignon and sourced from a section of the vineyard that is planted on soils containing ancient marine sediment and an alluvial fan that provides excellent mineral deposits. Full-bodied with concentrated black and purple fruit, the wine balances powerful fruit with elegant floral and spice notes, fresh acidity, and firm ripe tannins.
2023 Monastery Block
1x 750ml bottle
Vineyard: To Kalon
Varietal: Cabernet Sauvignon
Accolades: 97-100 points, Jeb Dunnuck
The Monastery Block is located on the western side of the To Kalon Vineyard, nestled against the foothills of the Mayacamas adjacent to the Carmelite monastery from which it takes its name. The wine is produced from 100% Clone 169 Cabernet Sauvignon planted on well-drained gravelly soils, showing a classic Oakville expression that balances rich black fruit with minerality and a floral component. Elegant and classically styled, this wine is generous, layered, and fresh.
2023 Heritage Clone
1x 750ml bottle
Vineyard: To Kalon
Varietal: Cabernet Sauvignon
Accolades: 97-100 points, Jeb Dunnuck
Sourced from a single block in the To Kalon Vineyard, this “Heritage Clone” produces impossibly small clusters with tiny berries and very low yields. The quality of the fruit, however, is indisputable – producing wines of great intensity, complexity and character that have proven compelling enough to keep these vines in the ground for decades. Densely fruited and plush with lively acidity for balance, this is an elegant and expressive wine offers a provocative range of flavors, such as ripened red cherries, chocolate shavings, mandarin orange rind, and sweet earth.
2023 TKS
1x 750ml bottle
Vineyard: To Kalon
Varietal: Cabernet Sauvignon
Accolades: 97-100 points, Jeb Dunnuck
A new addition to the Schrader Cellars portfolio with the 2023 vintage. This wine reflects winemaker Thomas River Brown's dedication to capturing the complexity of Cabernet Sauvignon, crafted exclusively from the historic To Kalon Vineyard, originally planted in 1868 by Hamilton Crabb. Exceptional soils, full sun, and cooling marine fog create ideal conditions for a Cabernet of remarkable depth. Rich dark fruit, elegant floral and spice notes, and ripe tannins highlight Schrader’s distinctive character, with TKS standing out as a remarkable addition to our portfolio.
2023 WH
1x 750ml bottle
Vineyard: Wappo Hill Vineyard
Varietal: Cabernet Sauvignon
Accolades: 95-97 points, Jeb Dunnuck
Wappo Hill Vineyard, in the Stags Leap District, was first planted in 1969. Produced from 100% Clone 685 Cabernet Sauvignon, this bottling is sourced from hillside vines planted on well-drained, gravelly, and clay-loam soils. The vines thrive with ample afternoon sun bookended by cool mornings and evenings and produce intensely flavored fruit with exceptionally balanced acidity. The wine features notes of blackberry, red cherry, and briary aromas that combine with pleasing threads of baking spice, floral petal, and dusty earth tones. This stunning wine shows the tremendous power of a classic Napa Valley Cabernet with a polished, long-lasting finish.
