Estate Château Montelena Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2015/2017

ABV 14%

"The 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate is a brilliant wine and one of the gems out there from this estate. It offers crème de cassis, crushed violets, purple iris, and white flowers, with beautifully integrated background oak. It’s deep, rich, medium to full-bodied, and seamless, with fine tannins, truly brilliant purity of fruit, and a great, great finish. Drink: 2019-2044. (1/31/19)"

Fruit forward style with hints of ripe cherry, blueberry and blackberry. A lovely soft accessible wine with a dash of vanilla from new French and American oak.

For over twenty years Bo Barrett and his father, Jim has consistently set their stall of superlative quality Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay before the world. Using a mix of estate fruit and brought in fruit, they believe in making decisions based on vintage variations and continue to set the bar for Napa Cabernet.
