Philip Togni Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley, USA 2023
Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley 2023
A landmark vintage from one of Napa Valley’s most revered mountain estates. Perched high on Spring Mountain, Philip Togni crafts Cabernet in a timeless, Bordeaux-inspired style that prioritizes elegance, complexity and longevity over sheer opulence. The 2023 is extraordinary, revealing layers of blackcurrant, cassis, dark cherry, violet, graphite, bay leaf and savory mountain herbs. Concentrated yet remarkably composed, it delivers firm, refined tannins, vibrant freshness and a remarkably long, mineral-driven finish. A compelling opportunity to secure a modern classic from one of Napa’s true legends. The blend is 82% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Merlot, 2% Cabernet Franc and 1% Petit Verdot. The long growing season helped develop concentration and complexity, while the wine retains the estate’s signature freshness and mountain tannins.
"One of the top vintages I have had the privilege to taste, Philip Togni's 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate starts quietly, with delicate, pretty notes of bay leaf and violets, then steadily grows into a crescendo of mixed red and black cherries and cassis. This medium- to full-bodied wine is concentrated, rich and dense yet never heavy or overdone; it's tannic but without any harshness, exhibiting awesome length and elegance on the finish."
