Of the most recent vintages of this wine that I have tasted, the 2008 is my favorite and I
believe this is destined to be one of the absolute classic turned out from this excellent Spring
Mountain property. The deep and very pure nose wafts from the glass in a superb blend of dark
berries, cigar smoke, currant leaf, dark soil tones, a touch of menthol and a fine framing of
smoky new wood. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and really refined on the attack,
with a rock solid core, firm, chewy tannins and a great sense of refinement on the very, very
long, primary and suave finish. This is very early days for this wine (it is after all, a young Togni
cabernet!), but it will eventually be extremely polished and vibrant and should eventually rank
right up there with the very finest vintages produced at this property, such as the 1996 and 1991.
2028-2075+.
