Note di degustazione
The 2011 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate is a lovely example of one of the most overlooked vintages in California's modern era. It has unquestionably green and unquestionably beautiful aromas of dried herbs, matcha tea, baking spice and tobacco. The palate is red-fruited, balanced and energetic, finishing on a powdery tannin note with delineated focus. The more successful 2011 California Cabernets have aged remarkably better than their initial reputation would have consumers believe, the Mount Eden bottling being a particularly charming example.

Mount Eden's 2011 Cabernet Sauvignon offers a striking interplay of ripe, flamboyant fruit and supporting mountain structure. Fresh, vibrant and energetic to the core, this stunning, beautifully delineated Cabernet Sauvignon might need another decade to show the full breadth of its pedigree, but it's all there. Pinot Noir at Chardonnay get most of the attention and Mount Eden, yet the Cabernet can be every bit as intriguing, just as it is here. The blend includes 5% Merlot, 1% Malbec and 1% Petit Verdot.
