Wine Enthusiast, 94 Points 

"Beautiful and classic mountain Cabernet aromas of currant, blackberry, pencil shavings and mint leaf waft from the glass. The palate brings a powerful structure balanced by vibrant acidity and gobs of ripe black cherry, blueberry and raspberry fruit. There's tons to love about this wine here and now, but this will age gracefully for well over a decade." 

Winemaker Notes: 

"The historic Monte Rosso Vineyard is one of California’s oldest Cabernet Sauvignon plantings that dates back to 1880. Located in the Moon Mountain subregion of Sonoma Valley, it sits in the shadow of the Mayacama mountain range at 1,300 feet above sea level. This beautifully balanced Cabernet Sauvignon is made from select lots from within this amazing vineyard. Deep ruby in color, this wine leads with aromas of toasted coconut, caramel, baked cherries, fig and bay leaves. Notes of cherry pie filling, Santa Rosa plum, allspice and graham cracker are revealed on the full-bodied palate. The long, balanced finish boasts with a supple mouthfeel and round tannin structure."
