My first opportunity to try Togni. A beautiful style. Rustic, pure, and well integrated. Enjoyed the fine tannins and fruit flavor. Delicate and high quality. — 6 days ago

Happy Thanksgiving!!

Overrated and overpriced. 1+hr decant, probably needed more. Very hot nose with plums. Massive tannins and hits the palate like a razor blade. Earthy with plums and prunes. Not my style. Medium depth and finish.

Anyone want my last bottle? — 15 days ago

$21 at Walmart of all places: inky dense rich - needed 2 hrs to unfurl to show complexity that is PS: coffee & tobacco, licorice and oh so peppery, herbs, and all manner of red & black fruit + cassis & vanilla. luscious dense plenty of stuffing, polished & suave on mid palate leading to lingering finish. still plenty of life ahead, definitely felt ABV tho — 4 days ago

Hate to be a typical wine drinker, but there was a smooth and velvety taste with a continuous bite at the end. Completely coats the tongue with flavor from start to finish. — 13 days ago

2018 vintage. Last tasted 1.31.25 (9.5) and 10.27.23 (9.4). Decanted and tasted after 1.25 hours. That quiet, yet confident, Spottswoode style...enduring and imprinting the palate gently. 12.5.25. — 7 days ago

Don’t drink a ton of Napa cab but it’s nice to have a nice one made in a somewhat more restrained style. 13.5%. Definitely young, the air helps - would wait several years or give a big decant. But even without a ton of that still very good with deep berry fruit, oaky dusty tannins that are relatively balanced. Great acid on the long finish. Excellent pairing with steaks and lamb chops at Sammy’s Ye Olde Cider Mill. — 8 days ago

Fancy bottle. This was a gift from my friend given for me to try a long aged wine she loved. Still has a dark color 11 years on. Aromas are perfumed and musky. Has a bit of berry. Bit of fancy soap or shampoo. Wet stone. Flavors are full and ripe. Juicy couture. Plenty of flinty and soil to go with the deep caisis and olive. This is balanced yet big. A Napa gem for sure. Lovely Cab. — 17 hours ago

Missed trying one last year, definitely opening up earlier than my previous bottles. 2 hour decant with a NY Strip. — 14 days ago
