Parker about CCS 2018
Schrader's CCS comes from Beckstoffer's To Kalon vineyard in Oakville, produced from clone 4 grown on the C1 block. It is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, aged in 100% new Darnajou and Taransaud French oak barrels for 18 months. Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon CCS Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard rolls effortlessly out of the glass with profound notions of baked plums, boysenberries, blackberry pie and cassis, leading to hints of mocha, tapenade and black truffles. Full-bodied, concentrated and with a rock-solid backbone of grainy tannins, it delivers muscular black fruit and savory flavors, leading to a long, earthy finish. 821 cases were made.

CCS 2018
Crafted by master winemaker Thomas Rivers Brown from Clone 4 Cabernet Sauvignon grown on the famed Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard in Oakville, the 2018 Schrader Cellars CCS (Colesworthy Cabernet Sauvignon) is a 100-point Napa Valley icon.
In the glass, the 2018 Schrader CCS displays an opaque, saturated purple-black hue.
The bouquet is spellbinding in its richness and detail: soaring notes of crème de cassis, wild blackberry, and warm black plum meld with dark chocolate, espresso bean, Madagascar vanilla, cedarwood, anise, and cured tobacco.
On the palate, the 2018 Schrader CCS combines monumental concentration and velvety opulence with effortless structural poise. Seamless, silk-polished tannins and vibrant natural acidity from the cooler, late-ripening 2018 vintage frame wave after wave of pure dark fruit and savoury spice, culminating in an endless, multidimensional finish.
One of the pinnacle expressions of Beckstoffer To Kalon and Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2018 Schrader CCS is a collector’s masterpiece built to thrive in the cellar for three decades or more.
