Item No. 22626 
ratings pedigree (past vintages):
winemaker's notes:

There is the trademark Montelena earthy, berry fruit, smoky and rich with many subtleties. On the palate it has a big juicy front, a very full texture and many layers of flavors in a rich cross section of fruit and terroir.

"Dense black with a crimson rim. Complex scents of black cherry, mocha and wintergreen with secondary nuances of animal fur and barnyard. Big, refined tannins and ripe flavors of blackberry and black cherry. Hints of leather and tea in the black cherry-driven close." 90 Points
The Wine News

critical acclaim:

"There are 10,200 cases of the remarkable 1997 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate. Opaque purple-colored with a dense, chewy, full-bodied personality, it displays abundant cassis, mineral, and earth notes. This brilliantly made, super-concentrated, pure, blockbuster possesses sweet tannin as well as a terrific finish. Having added additional weight since last year, this sumptuous, multilayered, profoundly concentrated Cabernet contains 14% alcohol. It is a candidate for 25-30 years of longevity."

98 Points

The Wine Advocate

"This California Cab serves up lots of ripe, supple black cherry, currant and plum-laced flavors, as well as pretty touches of earth, anise and mineral. Turns smooth and supple, finishing with polished tannins."
