2019 | Chateau Montelena The Montelena Estate | Napa Valley Pernand-Vergelesses technically perfectThe flagship wine of Chateau Montelena sourced from the winery's estate vineyard adjacent to the chateau near the base of Mount St Helena. Compact and restrained at first; give it some air and good things will come. Bright red toned fruits and dried wild herb notes are tethered to rich cedar spices. Well endowed with impressive depth and concentration, particularly evident in the mid palate which is weighted by crushed stones and earthen minerality.
