2023 Teeter Totter "A Stop Along The Way" Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon
Some stories start with a grand plan. A Stop Along the Way began with a curious palate, a passport and a willingness to let the road do the writing. From Lyon to Bordeaux to California, each place shaped Benoit Touquette’s craft and sharpened his perspective. Napa is where the friendships, lessons and inspiration came together. Oakville transforms that journey into the collection’s rarest expression—grounded in Napa, enriched by a world of influence and driven by an uncompromising pursuit of excellence. Personal and without pretension, it is a reminder that the moments between destinations are often the ones worth savoring.

THE PEOPLE & THE PLACE
Tetter Totter
Benoit Touquette has built his career making some of Napa Valley’s most celebrated wines. Born in Lyon and trained in Bordeaux, he came to Napa under the encouragement of his mentor, the late Michel Rolland. Over twelve years, Benoit helped shape the wines and evolution of Realm Cellars before building Fait-Main Wines, his deeply personal expression of Napa Valley. Teeter-Totter reveals another side of his winemaking: the same precision, vineyard knowledge and obsessive attention to detail—but with more freedom, spontaneity and generosity. Every bottle is designed to overdeliver: expressive enough to be memorable, approachable enough to open tonight, and priced to earn a permanent place at the table.
Napa Valley: Oakville
In the heart of Napa Valley, Oakville is celebrated for producing some of the world’s finest Cabernet Sauvignon.
