Napa Valley

Full

Natural Cork

This was an El Nino vintage with heavy winter and harvest rainstorms. Montelena mostly picked during the Indian summer in October, so this turned out to be a great vintage for them. Tannin is still apparent, as they extended maceration to 60 days. The wine has evolved beautifully: the nose is dried herbs and spicy fruit and the flavours of fresh berries and earth linger on the palate.
