Chateau Montelena Cabernet Sauvignon, Chateau Montelena
Description
Nose: Cocoa, raspberry jam, and dried fig highlight a bright, fresh nose that quickly settles into a steady parade of baking spices, black pepper, and earth.
Palate: Deceptively soft initially, the wine builds with its viscosity and concentration amidst layers of ripe plum, very fine tannins, and espresso bean. A lively ginger note adds a touch of spice, bolstered by dried cherry, tobacco, and fresh bright cranberries.
Finish: The finish is laser-focused, mineral-driven and persistent, not unexpected in young Cabernet. Delicious now, it will add breadth and polish with time in glass.

With the freedom to explore, they believe they have the privilege to learn. And by asking themselves why, they can better understand the path to how. With a 14-decade legacy comes the responsibility for further growth and Chateau Montelena refuse to rest on their laurels.
