The 2017 iteration of this wine is the most immediately generous and open of the vintages we have made. Classic black currant, anise and pepper are front and center here with classic mountain structure holding it all together. Though this is certainly as candidate for cellaring, it could also be enjoyed with a good decanting early in its life to enjoy it in its “baby-fat” stage.
The 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon Montecillo Vineyard Old Vine is a real powerhouse that will need a bit of time to reveal the breadth of its personality. Today, it comes across as monolithic, though there is plenty of depth to the dark fruit, spice, leather and chocolate flavors. If anything, my impression is that the Montecillo needs longer time in barrel. The reality is that most top-flight 2017 California Cabernets have not been bottled yet.
