Chateau Montelena Estate Cabernet Sauvignon 2008 (95 WA)

“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.” -J.C 2/23
