Vinification

Chateau Montelena's Estate Cabernet Sauvignon is made up of 98.75% Cabernet Sauvignon and 1.25% Cabernet Franc. The wine is aged in 100% French oak barrels (29% new) for 22 months.

Vintage

There are 3 kinds of growing seasons: cool, warm, and "just right." Cooler vintages, in particular, exemplify the truly exceptional nature of this piece of land - the grapes receive the prolonged hang time that is ideal for flavor development without getting any excess heat. These conditions enable us to craft classic, Old World-style wines that showcase the incredible fruit our Estate produces.

Wine

The Montelena Estate Cabernet Sauvignon is grown in one of the world’s most remarkable winegrowing properties. The site’s diversity of soils and slopes translates directly into the layers of complex flavors in this flagship wine.
