Robert Parker (93)

Montelena’s 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate wraps around the palate with serious depth. Even with all of its intensity, the 2009 has a silkiness that makes it incredibly delicious at this early stage. Red berries, flowers, tobacco and sweet herbs all flesh out on the generous, radiant finish. While many 2009s are a bit tight today, Montelena’s 2009 Estate is showing very nicely, although it is keeping some cards close to the vest. I imagine the 2009 will start to enter its prime drinking window around age 8-10 and drink well for at least another decade beyond that.

Tight, intense and focused, this has a Bordeaux-like austerity, with a crushed rock and cedar overlay. Featuring a dense if murky mix of leafy berry, dried herb, sage and tobacco leaf.
