Description

Schrader Cabernet Sauvignon 2006
Old Sparky
owc
Magnum (1)

Xavier and Carolyn Valero built their collection bottle by bottle, purchasing directly from the California producers they most admired. Professionally stored in a climate-controlled facility, the wines have been impeccably preserved. This inaugural release showcases the Valeros’ passion for authenticity and excellence in California Cabernet.

"The flagship wine, the 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon Beckstoffer To-Kalon Old Sparky, is another remarkable effort, offering up smoky blackberry and cassis fruit intermixed with notions of bouquet garni, roasted meats, creosote, and cedar. Tasting like a first-growth Pauillac from a very ripe, extravagantly rich vintage, this wine looks set to enjoy 25-30 or more years of longevity, as do all of these compelling Cabernets." (100 pts. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, Dec. 2008)
