Chateau Montelena
The Montelena Estate Calistoga Cabernet Sauvignon
More dessert. Very good but, just not as good as the 96 we had last Christmas or the one before.
Merry Christmas! ππ

Oct 22nd, 2016Quintessential California cabernet from my favorite vintage from California. Bold elegant perfumey and in your face. Blue fruits followed by red fruit aromatics, awesome mid palate flavors of leather licorice tobacco and cigar. Tannins softened by time makes the finish last for more than a full minute. This is truly First Growth quality. Go ahead, pick a better bottle, I dare you!
