Hermitage other_regions_italy The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon MontecilloBright medium ruby. Cool, perfumed aromas of blackberry, bitter chocolate and mint. Intensely flavored, concentrated and firmly built, with bright acids lifting the berry, violet and licorice flavors. Quite youthfully unevolved but already displays impressive inner mouth perfume. Finishes with firm tannic spine. Stephen Tanzer
