Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

The color is a dark ruby red with tints of violet offering bright aromas of dark cherry, baked plum followed by lifted spices of wild sage flower, cedar box and brown baking spices. A sweet and plush style tannins that are smooth and fine grained carrying the length of the palate finishing with baked cherry, cassis and toasted oak spices of anise and toffee.

    This starts out closed and tight, shut down by tannins and immaturity, but plenty of swirling reveals elusive black-licorice and blackberry notes, accented by smoky oak. The tannins really kick in toward the middle, but hard as they are, they exhibit great breed. Despite its sweet core of fruit, this is nowhere close to being ready. Give it 10 years. Cellar Selection.

    The 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate Tre Vigneti possesses gorgeous juiciness and depth. Rich, round and seamless, it is a gorgeous wine to drink now and over the next decade. Blueberries, blackberries and grilled herbs flesh out on the generous, inviting finish. The 2009 Tre Vigneti is a hugely enjoyable wine, especially for the money. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2019.

Montagna, California
Montagna Napa Valley has been an estate and winery in the works for a number of years. Proprietor Bob Long and his family have been associated with Pritchard Hill since the 1960’s; this is among the best terroir in Napa to not have a sub appellation designation. Bob’s parents first fell in love with Napa in the 1950’s and their family visited the valley fairly often. He remembers his first trip in 1955, driving up from their family home in Palo Alto and arriving at Charles Krug and being impressed with the huge casks as well as the invigorating smells inside the winery.

His uncle was well traveled and had visited France a number of times. He introduced the family to French wines and their trips to Napa become more frequent until Bob’s father decided to purchase hillside land. Pritchard Hill in the 50’s and 60’s was little developed; it was used almost exclusively for ranching and cattle grazing and the “main” road in the area was a dirt. Bob’s parents met local winemaking families including the Martini’s and the Long family ultimately purchased nearly 1000 acres in this now exclusive winery neighborhood. Top wineries have estates here including Bryant Family, Chappellet, Colgin, Continuum, and Ovid, among others.

One of the most prestigious wines of the world capable of great power and grace, Napa Valley Cabernet is a leading force in the world of fine, famous, collectible red wine. Today the Napa Valley and Cabernet Sauvignon are so intrinsically linked that it is difficult to discuss one without the other. But it wasn’t until the 1970s that this marriage came to light; sudden international recognition rained upon Napa with the victory of the Stag’s Leap Wine Cellars 1973 Cabernet Sauvignon in the 1976 Judgement of Paris.

Cabernet Sauvignon undoubtedly dominates Napa Valley today, covering half of the land under vine, commanding the highest prices per ton and earning the most critical acclaim. Cabernet Sauvignon’s structure, acidity, capacity to thrive in multiple environs and ability to express nuances of vintage make it perfect for Napa Valley where incredible soil and geographical diversity are found and the climate is perfect for grape growing. Within the Napa Valley lie many smaller sub-AVAs that express specific characteristics based on situation, slope and soil—as a perfect example, Rutherford’s famous dust or Stags Leap District's tart cherry flavors.
