Featured Wine

Schrader Cellars

2011 "Old Sparky" to Kalon, Cabernet Sauvignon — 1.5 L

Some bottles are simply collected. Others become stories that are retold for years to come.

The 2011 Schrader "Old Sparky" Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon belongs firmly in the latter. Produced in extraordinarily limited quantities, Old Sparky represents the pinnacle of Schrader Cellars' portfolio—a painstaking selection of only the finest barrels from the legendary Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard in Oakville, one of Napa Valley's most revered Cabernet Sauvignon sites.

The 2011 vintage demanded patience and precision. A cool growing season challenged winemakers across Napa Valley, yet Schrader emerged with a wine that showcases remarkable finesse. Layers of cassis, blackberry, graphite, violets, and baking spice unfold gracefully, supported by polished tannins and an elegance that continues to evolve with every pour. Rather than overwhelming with power, this vintage captivates with restraint, balance, and extraordinary complexity.

Awarded 100 points for more than 30 wines by top judges and publications, Schrader is known for crafting wine that speaks to collectors, enthusiasts, and anyone who appreciates the artistry of exceptional Cabernet Sauvignon.

At VinoCadre, we delight in sourcing bottles that are rarely encountered outside the world's finest cellars. Whether you're expanding your collection, commemorating a milestone, or searching for an unforgettable gift, this is a rare opportunity to own a true icon of Napa Valley.
