Note di degustazione
The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Montecillo Vineyard is fabulous. Andy Smith has done a tremendous job marrying the savory intensity of this Moon Mountain site with a lush expression of fruit. A wine of impeccable balance and class, the Montecillo is superb. Naturally, it needs a number of years in bottle to shed some baby fat and show the nuances that are typical of this site. There is so much to look forward to. The 2018 has really blossomed since I tasted it from barrel.

The 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon Montecillo Vineyard is the most reticent of the young 2018 Cabernets today, but that is not all surprising given the personality of this site. An exotic mélange of black cherry, graphite, mint, spice and floral/savory overtones emerges from this sculpted, vibrant Sonoma Cabernet. There is quite a bit of potential here, but readers will have to be patient.
