Montelena, The Montelena Estate Cabernet Sauvignon other_regions_italy rustic and powerful finishCurrently being offered to mailing list members as part of a three vintage pack (2008, 2013, 2018 for $700), the 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate is a killer wine that should continue to drink well for another 15 years or so. It offers up evolved notes of cigar box but remains fresh, with intense redcurrant and cassis still in evidence on the nose. Medium to full bodied, it's silky, aristocratic in bearing and long on the finish.
