Philip Togni has crafted memorable, riveting Napa Valley Cabernets for at least six decades. The Cabernet Sauvignon Togni made at Chappellet in 1969 remains one of the greatest and most singular wines I have ever had the pleasure to taste and drink, from any region in the world. Its longevity is reflected in a level of rarity and price that makes the 1969 the first modern-day cult wine in this history of Napa Valley. The winery remains very much a family affair. Daughter Lisa Togni makes the wines today, although her parents are quite engaged and always present. Among other things, the Tognis had the foresight to cellar a few cases of each vintage for a library that they tap into each year to offer their long-time customers perfectly stored 10-, 20- and, where possible, 30-year old wines. I tasted these three Cabernets after the new and upcoming releases on my most recent visit. As much as I enjoy tasting the young wines, I confess I always get excited when we move into the older wines, as Togni’s Cabernets have an extraordinary track record for developing into exquisite wines with time in bottle.

Philip Togni told me that frost reduced the 2008 crop by a full 10%, which is very unusual this far up SpringMountain. In recent years, Togni and daughter Lisa, who has been steadily taking over winemaking duties here, have been "a bit less cautious with fermentation temperatures." The result, he says, is more extraction, but one advantage may be that more alcohol is "boiled off." He's now pressing more cautiously, almost immediately after the end of the fermentation, "according to taste."
