Description
The iron-like minerality on both the nose and palate is a reflection of the rocky red volcanic soils of the Monte Rosso vineyard, originally planted in 1880.  The wine has a powerful structure that presents itself on the front palate, followed by an opulent mid-palate and savory sweet finish of cherry compote.

RECENT 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.
