Tasting notes
A super-classic Sonoma wine, the Cabernet Sauvignon Monte Rosso Vineyard is also one of the most distinctive offerings in the range. Black cherry, plum, iron, graphite, smoke and cured meats give the 2013 its distinctive aromatic and flavor signatures. Ample and bold, the 2013 is a total knock-out.

From the first-growth vineyard of Monte Rosso, the 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Monte Rosso (again, 100% Cabernet Sauvignon aged 32 months in 4% new oak) is a 30- to 35-year proposition. Inky blue/purple, with notes of underbrush, forest floor, wet gravel, and scorched earth as well as plenty of blackberry and blueberry fruit, this big, masculine, full-bodied Cabernet Sauvignon is fragrant but structured, dense and built for the long haul. Forget it for another 2-3 years and drink it over the following three decades-plus.
