Country: US / Corley Yewell Vineyard
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon California
Winery: Monticello Vineyards / St. Helena
Made in the style of Monticello’s 2008s, a ripe, softly delicious wine. It packs lots of berry, cherry, currant and chocolate fruit, with a savory earthiness suggesting green olives. Flashy enough to drink now, and could gain bottle interest over the next six years, if not longer.
