2014 Philip Togni, Spring Mt. Cabernet Sauvignon
UdsolgtKun 5 tilbage!Vineri Philip Togni
The flagship wine, the 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate from his vineyard high on Spring Mountain is a blend of 82% Cabernet Sauvignon, 15% Merlot, 2% Cabernet Franc and 1% Petit Verdot.
It seems slightly more approachable and civilized for a young Togni wine, with a dense ruby/purple color, loads of blackcurrant, licorice, and graphite, some earth and spice, but very subtle earth nuances.
It is full-bodied and rich, but the tannins are well-integrated and don’t scream as loudly as some vintages of Togni can.
For Togni, this is probably one of his more forward and precociously styled Cabernets.
It will probably approach drinkability in several years, but don’t discount its aging potential, as this easily has 20-25 years of cellaring potential.
