Note di degustazione
From the great first-growth site of Monte Rosso in Sonoma, the high-elevation 2005 Cabernet Sauvignon Monte Rosso Vineyard is dense ruby/purple and youthful, with tangy and briary fruit in the nose as well as background dusty soil undertones, some licorice, garrigue, and loads of blackcurrants and black cherries. The 100% new oak is barely noticeable at age ten. This wine still has tannin to resolve and has at least another 15 or more years of upside potential.

Good ruby-red. Penetrating aromas of blackberry, black cherry, licorice, graphite and eucalyptus. Like a mouthful of liquid rocks today, with a strong acid spine giving the wine excellent energy. But this also boasts a suppler texture than the Andolsen example and should offer early appeal. Finishes with a youthfully medicinal quality and considerable oak-driven chocolatey tannins.
