ToyMaker Cabernet Sauvignon 2019
The dazzling new 2019 Toymaker Diamond Mountain Cabernet is a show-stopper (literally) as our entire tasting panel fell silent upon first sip! The cashmere-like texture is guaranteed to delight fans of Napa’s most intense, Cult-style reds such as Checkerboard (same vineyard source) or even Harlan (original winemaker). The intensely pleasurable, dark fruit favors entice with notes of fresh figs, blackberry compote, and complex baking spice (cinnamon/ nutmeg) that lead to a blissful finish reminiscent of Toblerone Swiss chocolate. Savor this magnificent wine tonight (decanting recommended prior to 2026) or anytime through 2033. 98 now and well on the way to 99 points in the next few years.
