Philip Togni has been working the vineyards and cellars of Napa for a long, long time—including making the 1969 Chappellet which is widely considered one of if not the greatest wine to come from California. We are thrilled to have a few of his wines. Here are the words of other major critics on just how important he is: 

 

“No one is more deserving of this success than Philip Togni, who has made some of the all-time great Napa Valley Cabernets going back to the late 1960s” – Antonio Gallioni

 

“Cabernet enthusiasts who have not yet discovered Philip Togni should be on a crusade for his wines, which will handsomely repay extended cellaring.” – Robert Parker

 

“They are tensile and savory, dark-fruited and cedar-edged, showing the broad, ripe structure that shows mastery with this particular grape. They routinely last 20 years or more, matching the toughness of great old Bordeaux with a Napan generosity.” – Jon Bonne

This is his more entry level wine but is a picture into the Napa Valley of the past.
