Six barrels of fruit from a coveted vineyard made to
honor the matriarch of our family.
For our mother. Our heart.
"Superb, as one might expect from Beckstoffer To Kalon, a first-growth quality vineyard. It is a wine with plenty of berry fruit, floral notes, fabulous concentration, a full-bodied texture, and a long, pure finish. " – Robert M. Parker, Jr.
Truly a “grower's year” that demanded farmers adapt to changes in the weather. After a wet Winter and cool Spring delayed budbreak the sun caught up in a big way with mid-Summer showing us a record-setting ten-day heatwave. Moderation finally arrived in August allowing deliberate ripening and a long harvest period. Wines from this vintage show character and an unmistakeable age-worthiness.
This vintage delivers an irresistible balance of dark cherry, strawberry jam, and earthy mushroom. The wine's signature brooding intensity has made this a unique centerpiece of the Tres Perlas portfolio.
Our estate in the famed Oakville AVA produces bright and lively wines enjoyed by Bordeaux lovers as well as fans of bold California Cab. The 2016 vintage shows flavors of tart cranberry & green olive framed by superior acidity. Our inaugural vintage is elegantly balanced and age-worthy.
