A deliciously complex, intriguing, exciting expression of Cabernet. Firm where it should be, with a subtle mix of acid and tannins. Generous and layered with spicy berry flavors that sail on and on. Drink now through 2025. 300 cases made.

Too late, we are SOLD OUT!

We went back to Tor after we blew through the 2012 Cimarossa and asked for more. While there were no more 2012s to be had, he did ask if we’d be interested in these gems...direct from Tor’s cellar! Just a handful of cases each!

Seriously, offers like this just don’t come around often, to say the least. We go back a fair bit with Tor Kenward, and we convinced him to give us a few cases of the astoundingly good 97-point 2009 Cimarossa...Howell Mountain greatness! And 24 bottles of the uber-rare “Cuvee Susan”! Winemaker Jeff Ames knocks it out of the park!

At 10 years of age, the ‘09 is simply SUBLIME. Taking on the tertiary notes of bottle age now, it is elevated to new heights. The Howell Mountain tannins have softened, the wood has integrated beautifully, and it is long and complex. SO amazing to have a few cases to sell!

This ex-cellar offer is one of the most exciting Napa wines we’ve sold here at First Bottle and we hope you are one of the lucky few to get your hands on some. Free ground shipping for 6 bottles or more, as always. Mix and match as you like! Super limited! First come...first served!

About the Producer

"Over the last four decades, I've walked almost every corner of the Napa Valley striving to understand exactly what makes a great wine. After 27 years helping Beringer build a wine company known for premium single-vineyard Cabernet Sauvignons and Chardonnays, my wife, Susan, and I founded TOR Wines in 2001. Jeff Ames made our first wines that year. The plan was simple: our wines would come from only the best blocks in great vineyard sites I knew and revered." - Tor Kenward
