Out of stock
Description
The Chateau Montelena Napa Valley Cabernet spends 16 months in a mixture of French and Eastern European oak, 26% of which was new. The wine is a wonderful dark garnet in the glass. The enticing nose has plenty of aromatic intensity making it irresistible, with fresh berries and dried cherries combining with bergamot, lavender, mint and sage in perfect harmony.
The palate is fresh and dynamic, with cranberry, cola, and raspberry jam. The acidity is laser focused, the spine pulling the layers of flavour into harmony with the wine’s supple, yet dense, structure. The tannins are supportive and elevate rather than overwhelm the balance of texture, ripeness, and vineyard character.
91% Cabernet Sauvignon and 9% Merlot

2020 Cabernet Franc Seleccion, Bodegas Rio Del Elorza, Mendoza
Cabernet Franc
The Verum Cabernet Franc Seleccion, Bodegas Rio Del Elorza has classic elements on the nose including wild strawberry, blackberry, pencil shavings and a hint of blackcurrant leaf. Lovely ripe fruits with a hint of stalky/vegetal character but not too much greenness, instead offering more body and depth of fruit and a slight touch of herbal mint. The full-bodied palate is elegant with firm tannins but a vital balancing acidity. Cedar notes show from the use of French oak and the finish is dominated by bright red fruit and mocha spice.
