Reviews

94 -

aged in 50% new oak and once-used Schrader barrels. This label focuses on blocks in the Mondavi To Kalon portion that don't make the cut for the primary Schrader wines. Vineyard manager Blake Wood emphasises identifying blocks within areas like the ‘P Neighborhood’ of the To Kalon site -

divided into distinct parcels. The wine exhibits a bright and vibrant profile -

leaning toward red-fruited characteristics with crunchy black cherry and ripe plum notes. Rich toffee and caramel spices add complexity -

while firm -

structured tannins support the full-bodied richness. It is a compelling and layered expression of Oakville. -

Even though it’s technically Schrader’s second label, there is nothing second rate about Double Diamond. Sure, they take grapes from younger vines that didn’t happen to make the cut for Schrader, but this is still mostly Oakville’s hallowed To Kalon fruit we’re talking about!
