Estimate
Great lushness and depth on the palate; pliant, seamless and thoroughly ripe, but with strong supporting structure under the seductive flesh.
Ripe and compact, with rich black cherry, plum, chocolate and cedar notes, focused and long on the finish. Has tannin to lose.
...this offering is more elegant and finesse-styled than usual. However, as with previous Monte Bellos, it will take a long time to come around...
Very dark crimson. Spicy and sweet. Fully evolved and very obviously mellow Cabernet.
