Tobias Cabernet Sauvignon Formation Mendocino 2020
FIFTEEN DOLLAR, 92 POINT Cabernet Sauvignon? Made by the Forman family’s own, Toby Forman? You know, the son of the ICONIC Ric Forman?! Si, ja, yes, oui oui, great googly-moogly YES!!! BRING IT.
$15! My, oh my!!! 80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Malbec, 10% Merlot aged for two years in French Oak, 50% new, and 50% second-year barrels, with a TOTAL production of just 200 CASES! Blackberry pie right out of the oven is the name of the game, packed with cool baby powder and white flower incense, some fresh lavender, and "Did-I-just-eat-a-handful-of-blueberries?" flavors, with some vanilla bean action kicking in, followed by coffee and mocha on the finish. Hints of bright and boisterous cherries, too, with a nice balance of brightness and overall toasty yumminess. Pop a bottle the second it hits your doorstep...seriously. Tastes like Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa you’d happily pay four times (or more) for…at a price that dances with insanity under the pale moonlight.
You can make a pretty solid argument that Ric Forman is one of the titans at the top of the Napa Valley winemaking chain. Sterling, Newton, Duckhorn – none of these exist as we know them today without the man. And that doesn’t even take into account his own Forman label or his earlier partnership with David Abreau. He’s kind of a big deal, basically, and has been for quite some time. That, THAT, is what Toby grew up with, and learned all that he could, working side-by-side with dad for years, and taking on more and more responsibility with the family holdings scattered across Sonoma, Mendocino, and Napa. A life-long apprenticeship, you might say…and that’s a pretty solid deal if your dream includes working in the wine industry! But this TOBIAS Cabernet from Mendo might even be a bigger deal – at least at our cray-cray price!
The BEST of the best fruit from their family’s estates in Mendocino and it’s a screaming-good – especially at our goosebumpy price. We bought every bottle we could scrape up because that is really the ONLY sane choice when you can offer out a $15 CABERNET made by anyone who learned under Ric Forman (much less his son)! 92 points is the cherry on top – but this deal is downright silly!
Even if you nabbed a handful of this several months back – you’re gonna want more. And if you missed out the first time ‘round – here’s your chance to go big and thank me later. The price for quality Cabernet champion that simply can’t be BEAT!!!
