2023 Titus Andronicus Red Wine Napa Valley 750 ml

The value-oriented pride and joy of 100-point winemaker Phil Titus and his vineyard-savant brother, Eric, Titus Andronicus is rich, powerful, and extravagantly concentrated—which is why it’s one of our all-time most-popular Napa red blends, selling out vintage after vintage.

This is made for fans of The Prisoner and Colgin alike, and today we’re thrilled to bring you the 2023. Full-bodied and mouthfilling, packed with dark fruit and structured with velvety tannins, it shows exactly why our passionately devoted members always stock Titus in their cellars.

Phil Titus has engineered a three-decade run of critically acclaimed wines at Chappellet, with his Cabs routinely fetching scores of 97 points or more—and commonly go for prices that hit $300. His brother Eric is a former president of the Napa Valley Grape Growers Association—with the connections to match. He’s also a brilliant, intuitive vineyard manager who holds a doctorate in biology. Together with their father, Lee, the Tituses have created a family legacy that has helped shape the St. Helena AVA into the standard-bearer it is today.

In 2023, the team had a stunning year to work with. The long and wet winter and spring pushed budbreak back a bit, but a warm and sunny May pushed the vines to bloom under beautiful conditions. And even summer with a nice hot spell put the finishing touches on the fruit, which was harvested over six leisurely weeks. 

In the cellar, the Titus team gave the 59% Cabernet, 23% Petit Verdot, and 6% each Cab Franc, Petite Sirah, and Merlot a luxurious rest in barrel for 20 months prior to bottling, making sure the tannins were fully rounded before bottling.
