Toadilly Luscious Wine

2009 Lodi Touriga

Toasted Toad Cellars Toadilly Luscious Wine, a captivating red Touriga from the Lodi region, showcases an enchanting depth and vibrancy. This full-bodied wine offers a remarkable balance of high acidity that invigorates the palate, contributing to its overall freshness and liveliness. The fruit intensity is prominent, presenting a medley of luscious dark fruits like blackberry and plum, complemented by subtle notes of spice and earthiness. Tannins are notably structured, providing a robust framework without overwhelming the wine's elegant character. Best of all, this vintage is decidedly dry, making it an ideal companion for rich dishes or a delightful indulgence on its own.

California is one of the most diverse winegrowing regions in the world. Spanning 850 miles along North America's west coast—and inland across mountains and valleys—California's American Viticultural Areas (AVAs) cover a dizzying array of terroir. The cold, deep waters of the Pacific Ocean play a major role in cooling California's vineyards, sending fog and chilly air up to 100 miles inland. This tempers the daytime heat and allows grapes to ripen slowly but fully. Cooler-climate grape varieties thrive closest to the sea, while further inland, bigger, bolder wines prevail.
