Has anyone had this 22yr old cab recently? Any info is appreciated. I would think this could be a very pleasant surprise. TIA.

KSC02, WIML and I had the '87 Dominus last year and it was showing well.

And, as you both know, the '87 Mondavi Reserve is humming right along. I would be surprised if the Togni didn't show well.

I have access to a bottle for $75 and that seems like a fair price.

I would go for it if the owner had good storage.
$75 is really fair, but I will drink it now.

I was thinking of getting it and serving it at Thanksgiving. My father is visiting and he does not drink older wines as much as he used to.
